Biology is the natural science concerned with the study of living organisms, ranging from the simplest life forms to the complex systems operating in higher animals, including humans. An understanding of biology will provide a platform from which to evaluate the effects of a range of factors, both natural and man-made, on the living organisms in our world. Modules studies are: • Biological molecules • Cells • How organisms exchange substances with their environment • Genetic information, variation and relationships between organisms • Energy transfers in and between organisms • How organisms respond to changes in their internal and external environments • Genetics, populations, evolution and ecosystems • The control of gene expression
- Students should hold a minimum of two Grade 5s in Science at GCSE, one of which must be Biology, as well as a Grade 5 in GCSE Mathematics. - At least 5 GCSE passes at grade C or above including English and Maths, with grade B in the subjects they wish to study at Level 3
100% Examination Paper 1 – comprising a mixture of short and long answer questions, with the addition of extended response questions. Paper 2 – comprising a mixture of short and long answer questions, with the addition of comprehension questions.
