Biology

At Redhill High School Pembrokeshire, science is at the heart of our curriculum. We believe in fostering curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking through a strong and broad scientific education. From Year 7 to Year 9, students study separate sciences — Biology, Chemistry, and Physics — taught as distinct subjects by specialist teachers. This approach allows students to build a secure understanding of key scientific principles while developing practical and analytical skills through regular hands-on laboratory work.

At GCSE, students follow the OCR specification, enabling them to study each of Biology in depth and gain a recognised and valued qualification comparable with students across the UK. This rigorous and well-balanced programme ensures students are fully prepared for post-16 study.

At A Level, Redhill offers WJEC specifications in Biology. These courses provide challenging and stimulating content, combining theoretical knowledge with a strong focus on experimental skills, data analysis, and scientific inquiry. Across all key stages, the Biology Department emphasises independent thinking, real-world application, and enthusiasm for discovery, helping students develop both academic excellence and a lifelong interest in the sciences.
