Science A-level Practical Endorsement

In addition to BioGrad^TM’s world-class research facilities their courses are held by real scientists and the learners receive experience of working in a live laboratory.

We live in turbulent times with regards to restrictions and not knowing whether there will be lockdowns or local restrictions.

BioGrad^TM can offer security during these times:

• COVID tests on arrival to ensure all students (and staff) are safe to carry out their workshop
• Support in finding accommodation, specifically chosen to ensure learner safety and well being during their time studying with BioGrad^TM
• BioGrad^TM can be flexible with dates so if the learner is unable to attend the workshop on the agreed date, there is an option to arrange another time, subject to availability and following BioGrad^TM ‘s amendment and cancellation policy.
