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 college. Many skills are developed during practical work, and we have well-equipped laboratories to support you with this.

• 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.

What our
students
I love studying A-level Biology as every lesson teaches me something new, i feel like it has deeply developed my critical thinking and problem solving skills which will definitely help me in future studies. My teacher has a clear passion and enthusiasm for the subject which helps keep the whole class engaged. The supportive atmosphere in the classroom means everyone feels comfortable and free to speak up about their ideas or enquiries.
