Congratulations to the A-level Biology students at Cirencester College who achieved outstanding results in the prestigious Biology Olympiad competition.
The Olympiad is an annual problem-solving competition designed to challenge and stimulate students with an interest in Biology to extend their talents. They are introduced to topics and ideas they are not familiar with, and assigned a series of tasks to complete.
This year, 33 Year 1 and 2 A-level Biology students took part in the competition.
Dave Bell, Course Team Leader for Biology, said “The Olympiad is a very challenging national competition that requires students to apply their knowledge and understanding from across the A-level Biology course and complete some very hard problem solving. We are incredibly proud of all of our students who took part and hope that many of the Year 1 students will have another go next year!”
Well done to all involved. A special mention must go to the following students who did particularly well, and achieved either a Gold, Silver, or Bronze award:
Jude T (Gold)
Zsuzsi F (Silver)
Eamon P (Silver)
Max B (Silver)
