GCE2YR Biology

UPDATED 20161011 13:26:06

WHY CHOOSE BIOLOGY? This is an interesting and well established sixth form subject having been taught at Whickham for many years. The course is designed to build on attainment at GCSE and provides for the needs of students who will progress to higher education and also those who may go directly into employment. Whilst many students combine biology and other sciences, students studying different subjects including geography, sociology, economics and psychology will find it an excellent 'mixer' acting as a bridge between science and a diversity of other curriculum areas. In higher education, many of our former students have gone on to study biological and other sciences at university; courses have included medicine, dentistry, veterinary science, physiotherapy, nursing, medical physics, environmental sciences, genetics, and biotechnology. Offers for places on these courses vary, but generally students from Whickham have achieved higher grades than the minimum required.
