Exam Board: Salters Nuffield Level: A level Subject: Science / Biology First teaching: September 2015 First exams: June 2017 Every Student Book includes an ActiveBook, giving students easy online access to the content and letting them personalise it with notes, highlights and links to wider reading – ideal for revision. Student Book 1 supports a standalone AS course and covers the first year of the two-year A level course, with Student Books 1 and 2 together supporting the full A level. The approach is cumulative throughout, building constantly on what’s already been learnt, with each topic set within a wider context and concepts revisited and developed in later topics. Integrated maths and stats support points students to online maths resources, and Thinking Bigger spreads ask them to apply knowledge in new contexts, think about connections and build essential assessment skills across the course. Real-life articles bring students into contact with current biological writing, developing the scientific literacy skills needed for A level and beyond, while Checkpoints consolidate knowledge through summarising tasks and practical activities let students practise their skills and understand practical requirements. Content has been updated throughout to reflect revisions, additions and deletions in the subject specification.
