British Biology Olympiad

In the week before half-term, 26 Lower Sixth Biology pupils took part in this year’s British Biology Olympiad. The competition comprised of two 45-minute papers. The first paper contained many questions about all aspects of biology and the second paper contained longer problems. Pupils were presented with unfamiliar ideas and topics and had to use problem solving skills and intuition.

As a completely voluntary competition, we are very proud of the pupils who took part. Huge congratulations to Scarlet L, Joel V and Leane B for achieving Silver awards and to Brodie M, Oliver K, Isabel T, Isabelle P, Luciel K, Wui Yu T, Kirill P and Sydney M for achieving Bronze. Well done!
