Biology

The two year senior biology course aims to give students a greater understanding of themselves and the living world around them. Topics are divided into three units:
  • experimental design and fieldwork
  • cell structure and function
  • plant and animal systems. 
Practical and laboratory experience is a fundamental component of the course, allowing students to build on skill attained during junior science.
