Biology is the ‘study of life.’ It allows us to understand the workings of our bodies and the world around us. Today, biological science is still at the forefront of ground-breaking and rapid developments that will shape the future of humankind. Do you want to be part of these? If so, Biology is the course for you. Many students follow this course with a biologically-related degree that would lead to occupation in several areas including medicine, dentistry, health care, veterinary medicine, forensic science, physiotherapy, environmental work, food science, biological research, sports science and pharmacy. Other students find the broad base of skills and knowledge gained from the course useful when pursuing degree courses or careers in other areas including business, marketing, journalism, and psychology. The Biology course involves a range of hands-on practical lab work studies. Due to our proximity to the University of Cambridge and the local science parks and institutes, students will be able to attend lectures and seminars either remotely or in person. We have developed links with a number of these places including the Babraham Institute which offers virtual or actual opportunities for our students. Alongside this, we undertake field work days when students can develop their practical investigation skills. We also offer support sessions for students when extra help is needed.
Minimum of 5 x 5s. Minimum of a 4 in English and Maths. 6 in GCSE Biology if doing single sciences Or 6,7 in GCSE Double Science. 6 in GCSE Maths.
