Biology is the study of life including you and all other living organisms, from the molecular level right through to entire ecosystems. Essential principles are taught in the context of today’s themes and issues, such as how our actions enhance the antibiotic resistance of bacteria and studying lifestyle factors that increase the risk of cancer and heart disease. The Curriculum – The main of study are: Biology and disease Variety of living organisms. Populations and environment Control in cells and organisms. The course combines detailed theoretical knowledge with practical research including laboratory work, interpreting data to solve scientific problems and writing in a scientific way. Assessment Breakdown – Assessment is through a mixture of written exams (each main area of study has a written exam) and then there is a practical assessment in each year of study. Career Paths - An A Level in Biology can be the first step towards careers in fields such as; research science, marine biology, healthcare and forensic science, as well as medicine, dentistry and veterinary science. Biology is identified by selective universities as one of the subjects they prefer applicants to have studied at A Level. Business Studies Course Title - A Level Business Studies. Level & Grading - A* - E at A Level Course Overview – A-level Business Studies helps students: develop a critical understanding of organisations, the markets they and the process of adding value
