What the college says

This is a course for students who have enjoyed and been successful whilst studying GCSE geography, who enjoy both human and physical environments and are looking to study geography in more depth and detail. Geography certainly doesn�t have to be a subject on which to focus your career, but your personal and academic skills will benefit tremendously from this course; the ability to hold mature and balanced discussions, essay-writing skills, graphical and statistical analysis, problem-solving, independent study and research, as well as to become aware of global issues and debates. The A-Level Geography specification will continue to excite your minds, challenge your perceptions and stimulate your investigative and analytical skills. Whilst you will study new and unfamiliar modules in A-Level Geography, that have been included to truly reflect the world and its 21st Century challenges, you will also see that it has retained some of the modules that you have enjoyed previously, including hazards and population.

What you need to get on

You will need 5 GCSE's at grades 5-9, including Maths & English Language.

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?

Approved for 16 to 18 study on the government's Section 96 list.
