About Junior Cycle Biology tutoring in Ireland

There is no separate Junior Cycle subject called Biology. Living things are taught as the Biological World strand of Junior Cycle Science, which every student takes at Common Level. These sessions target that strand specifically.

Students come to us for it for two reasons. Some find the biological content harder than the chemistry and physics strands and want it shored up before the final examination. Others are strong at it and are weighing up Leaving Certificate Biology, which is one of the most popular subjects in the country and assumes this material as its starting point.

The strand is also the usual home of the Extended Experimental Investigation, one of the two Classroom-Based Assessments, so the investigation skills we build here feed straight into assessed work.

Biology is the Biological World strand of Junior Cycle Science rather than a subject in its own right - the separation into Biology, Chemistry and Physics happens at Leaving Certificate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Biology a separate Junior Cycle subject?+
No - it is the Biological World strand within Junior Cycle Science, which all students take at Common Level. These sessions concentrate on that strand for students who find it harder than the rest, or who are considering Leaving Cert Biology.
Does it help with the Classroom-Based Assessments?+
Yes. The Extended Experimental Investigation is often biological, and the investigation skills we build apply to either CBA.
Does it prepare for Leaving Cert Biology?+
Directly. Leaving Cert Biology assumes the cell biology and ecology from Junior Cycle, so a solid strand here makes Fifth Year much easier.
Should my child take Leaving Cert Biology?+
This strand is the best guide. Students who enjoy the systems and processes here usually do well with it; those who prefer calculation often suit Chemistry or Physics better.
Does this help with the CBAs?+
Yes. The Extended Experimental Investigation is frequently biological, and the fair-testing and data skills apply to either Classroom-Based Assessment.
Is Junior Cycle Science examined at Higher Level?+
No - Junior Cycle Science is assessed at Common Level, so every student sits the same paper. Levels appear at Leaving Certificate.
