Twenty-two of our Year 10 Scientists took part in the UKBC Biology Challenge in May. The competition is open to children aged 13-15 and consists of two, twenty-five-minute, multiple-choice papers taken online under staff-supervised exam conditions.

Questions are set on the school curriculum, but the competition also rewards those students whose knowledge of the subject has been increased by reading books and magazines, watching natural history programmes, taking notice of the news media for items of biological interest, and are generally aware of our natural flora and fauna.

This year the Year 10 Triple Science cohort, plus one student from the Combined Science class, were put forward for the competition, joining over 45,000 students from around the UK.
