Biology at Advanced Level is a fascinating and demanding subject building on concepts that have been introduced at GCSE. Studying Biology gives a greater understanding of Biochemistry, Digestion, Circulation, DNA technology, Nervous System, Environment, Microbes and Disease and the study of Plant Physiology. Biology provides a framework for further study on a number of Undergraduate Courses at University and future employment. Underpinning Biology is also the consideration of ‘How Science Works’ and topics to the relevance of Biology in Society.
