What the college says

Philosophy will change the way you think forever - Philosophy, ethics and religion is a popular fascinating course providing a rich and diverse study of the most highly debated questions of all: are we free? Does God exist? What happens when we die? Our students consistently achieve A*, A and B grades each year, with the department achieving consistently high ALPS scores year in year out. We are keen for students to shape their own learning and welcome independent work, ideas and revision strategies. We believe there must be an element of fun in lessons. In previous years this has included developing philosophically named drinks, lessons outside, music, video making, model building, whole class pictograms and much more to enhance the general classroom experience. The OCR course studies a deep and interesting blend of subject matter and leads to an A Level in Religious Studies.
