Bangor University's Department of Philosophy, Ethics, and Religion is delighted to announce the return of our April A-level revision sessions. These sessions are specifically crafted to provide crucial support for students revising Religious Studies A-level, but they may also prove beneficial for those engaged in A-level Philosophy revision. This year, we are proud to offer three distinct sessions every day from April 2nd to April 11th.

Our daily schedule includes a session on A-level Buddhism at 11:00 AM, delving into topics such as The Heart Sutra, Zen Buddhism, Buddhism in the West, Tibetan Buddhism, The Historical Buddha, The Three Lakshanas, The Eightfold Path, and Meditation.

Following that, at 12:30 PM, we have a session dedicated to the Philosophy of Religion, covering themes like Religious Language: Symbolism, Freud on Religious Belief, Religious Language: Wittgenstein, The Problem of Evil, The Design Argument, The Ontological Argument, The Cosmological Argument, and William James on Religious Experience.

Finally, at 2:00 PM, there is a session focusing on A-level Ethics, exploring Meta-ethical approaches like Naturalism and Intuitionism, Free Will and Determinism, Aquinas on the Conscience, Natural Law, Situation Ethics, Utilitarianism, and Euthanasia.

Each session has been meticulously designed by an academic staff member from the Philosophy, Ethics, and Religion department at Bangor University. Furthermore, all sessions have undergone thorough review by an A-level examiner with expertise in the respective areas. We are excited to offer these sessions free of charge, conducted on the Zoom platform.
