What are lessons like in this subject?
We use metacognition at the heart of our teaching to promote understanding and memory of key concepts. Lessons are taught by teachers who are knowledgeable and have a passion for their subject.
We focus on developing the skills needed to excel at Biology, lots of which are transferable and will help students succeed after their time at sixth form. Many skills are developed during practical work, and we have well-equipped laboratories to support you with this.
What will I study?
• Biological Molecules.
• Cells.
• How organisms exchange substances with their environment.
• Genetic information and variation.
• Energy transfer within and between organisms.
• Responses to internal and external environments.
• Genetics, populations, evolution and ecosystems.
• Practical and investigative skills in Biology.
What our
students
I find it fascinating how nature is often far more complex than it first appears. Something that seems simple can involve incredibly precise endless processes working together.
