This course is suitable for biology students of IGCSE| GCSE O level| AQA | Edexcel and other relevant syllabus.
It isto allow learners to recognise that science is evidence based and understand the usefulness, and the
limitations, of scientific methodto develop skills that:
• are relevant to the study and practice of biology
• are useful in everyday life
• encourage a systematic approach to problem-solving
• encourage efficient and safe practice
• encourage effective communication through the language of science
Also, to develop attitudes relevant to biology such as:
• concern for accuracy and precision
• objectivity
• integrity
• enquiry
• initiative
• inventiveness
- to enable learners to appreciate that:
• science is subject to social, economic, technological, ethical and cultural influences and limitations
• the applications of science may be both beneficial and detrimental to the individual, the community
