Students study Biology as a single subject from Year 3 onwards. During all our courses students have the opportunity to develop a greater understanding of biological facts, together with an appreciation of their significance in new and changing situations.

We encourage practical work wherever possible in order enhance the students understanding of biological concepts. As course work continues to be a major part of any Biology syllabus we endeavour to equip Shebbear students with the skills and confidence they need to carry out investigative work in a positive and determined manner.Hopefully, when the time comes for our students to leave Shebbear College, they will have with a much deeper awareness of Biology in our changing world, as well as an appreciation of its responsible use in society.
