The GCSE Biology course is designed for students who either don’t currently hold a GCSE in Biology at a grade 4 or above (or equivalent), or who are looking to improve their Biology skills for various purposes. GCSE Biology helps you gain a fundamental understanding of living organisms and their interactions with the environment, as well as developing your scientific thinking skills. It provides you with a foundation for further studies in Biology and related fields, and opens doors to careers in healthcare, science and more.
You will also develop scientific inquiry skills by gathering evidence and drawing conclusions; critical thinking skills by analysing data and evaluating arguments; and communication skills, both orally and in writing.
