“The unexamined life is not worth living.” – Socrates

A Level Philosophy is a great course for students who enjoy exploring big questions regarding morality, knowledge, the nature of the mind and the existence of God, and formulating their own conclusions. Students will develop academic writing, debating and critical thinking skills.

Ms Kelly Meuleman, Head of Religion, Philosophy and Ethics
