Practical Assessment
It is really important to remember that the term practical skills covers a very wide range of requirements at A level. It does not mean just the ability to handle equipment in a school laboratory or know how to use some particular piece of apparatus. It ranges from using mathematics in a practical context to understanding how scientists investigate ideas, how they analyse their data and how they are very cautious when drawing conclusions.
Practical skills are assessed through a dedicated examination unit both at AS (Unit 3) and at A Level (Unit 6).
The practical assessment is by written exam only. For further information, please click here.
On successful completion of all your exams for the A Level Biology Online Course, you will be awarded one of the following qualifications:
