Introduction This is a rigorous, academic and traditional A-level course. Theology, Philosophy & Ethics (Religious Studies) represent some of the oldest academic disciplines and have their origins in antiquity. The subjects first studied at some of the country's earliest universities, such as Oxford and Cambridge, included theology and philosophy. This A-level course races through the thinkers' history; from the giants of Greek philosophical thought, such as Plato and Aristotle, to some of today's leading and contemporary theologians. As such, the course offers an unprecedented depth to scholarly research and a fascinating richness of thought on any given topic. We would love to help you to formulate your own thoughts to contribute to the debate.
4 GSCE Grades B/5 or above, plus at least a Grade 4 in English Language and Mathematics. An open mind, a willing spirit and a teachable heart. There are no specific requirements in addition to the requirements for general admission set by St. Christopher's Sixth Form. GCSE RS is not an essential pre-requisite.
There are 4 units: 2 at AS and 2 at A2, each carrying 25% of the final mark. Each unit is assessed by examination, the final unit's exam question is 'seen' prior to the date of examination.
