What the college says

This course is designed for those who are passionate about Biology and have an interest in exploring the biological world around them in more detail than is offered at KS4 Science. Biology A Level is relevant to real world experiences and infuses the application of imaginative and logical thinking through the interpreting and evaluating experimental data of how organisms function. The topics we study have been developed to inspire students, nurture a passion for Biology and lay the groundwork for further study in courses like biological sciences and medicine. Biology is fundamentally an experimental subject and our course provides numerous opportunities to use practical experiences to link theory to reality, and equip students with the essential practical skills they need. Our A Level Biology course provides a stepping stone to future study by developing the skills that universities want to see.
