What the college says

Are you interested in finding out more about the impact of human activity on our planet? Perhaps you are interested in discovering ways in which environmental damage can be halted or even reversed. If this sounds like you, then come and join with like-minded people by choosing A Level Environmental Science. As a student you will have the opportunity to gain insights and an understanding of how geographical and biological components are interrelated in terms of the environment. This scientific subject will lead you to both answers and more questions, and sits particularly well alongside subjects like Biology, Chemistry, and Geography. Lessons are a mixture of whole class teaching, group work and independent research that will lead to you presenting your findings to the class. You will also learn through lab work, discussions and field trips. During your studies you will become more confident in kick sampling, microclimate analysis, and ecological sampling in grassland and woodland habitats.
