Curriculum

At GCSE, students will study either the combined or separate Biology course.  All the topics below will be covered for both courses.

GCSE and A Level courses follow the AQA specification.

The Biology Curriculum at Ashmole Academy is underpinned by five subject specific curriculum pillars:

These pillars make explicit the purpose of learning Biology, including the knowledge and skills that are developed over time.

The pillars are referred to in every lesson, enabling students to link new learning to what they already know and can do.
