What the college says
Studying A-level Geography allows you to see how and why our world is changing. It can help you to develop your research skills, literacy and numeracy and allows you to develop your own views on the challenges that we face in the future. There are no easy solutions to some of the world’s problems and geographers learn to understand the complexity of human, physical and environmental interactions at local, national and international scales.
What you need to get on
Students should have achieved at least a Grade 6 or above in GCSE Geography. If students did not do GCSE Geography, they will need a Grade 6 in an essay writing subject such as English Language or History.
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.
