Religious Studies A-level consists of 3 main areas of study in Philosophy, Ethics and Religious Thought.

Ethics: You will study how people come to make decisions on a whole range of issues. You will ask big questions: How should I behave? How must I live? Is honesty always really necessary? Is killing a person ever justified?

Religious Thought: You will focus on the key beliefs and practices of Christianity. This will also provide an opportunity to reflect on and explore the place and role of religion in the modern world.
