About This Subject
Cambridge AS & A Level Biology (9700) is an internationally recognised two-year curriculum designed for advanced study of biology beyond IGCSE or equivalent. It builds on foundational biological concepts and develops deeper understanding, practical skills, scientific reasoning, and investigative abilities. It’s widely used by schools globally to prepare students for university and careers in science, medicine, biotechnology and related fields.
Learning Objectives
By studying Cambridge AS & A Level Biology, learners will:
Understand core biological principles such as cell structure, enzymes, genetics, respiration and photosynthesis.
Explore how living organisms function, interact, and adapt at cellular, organismal and ecosystem levels.
Develop strong practical laboratory skills, including planning experiments, collecting data, analysing results and evaluating methods.
Learn to apply biological knowledge to unfamiliar contexts and real-world situations (health, environment, biotechnology).
Build scientific thinking skills such as problem-solving, data interpretation, critical analysis and logical reasoning.
Communicate biological ideas clearly using accurate scientific terminology, diagrams and calculations.
Gain a solid foundation for further study in medicine, life sciences, biotechnology, environmental science and related fields.
This subject develops both theoretical understanding and hands-on scientific skills, preparing learners for university-level science and science-based careers.
