BIOZONE’s worktext:  OCR Biology A: A-Level 1/ AS (Modules 1-4) has been fully updated to address the first year of the latest curriculum revision:

  • Cambridge OCR Level 3 – Advanced Subsidiary GCE in Biology A:  H020     Version 4.0 (Nov. 2025)

Featuring a vibrant new design, enhanced digital integration, and a reorganised structure that supports clearer learning pathways. Combining the depth of a textbook with the active learning approach of a workbook, this worktext guides students through the course with clear explanations, detailed diagrams, and a wide range of structured activities.

Content is now organised into clearly defined sections introduced by two-page module overviews, each featuring a concept map of the module content to help students visualise how key ideas connect across the topic. Every activity is carefully aligned to the OCR specification, giving teachers and students confidence that all required knowledge and skills are fully covered.

The refreshed edition features rich full-colour visuals, clear specification alignment indicators, and QR codes linking directly to interactive 3D biological models. Chapters also provide access to curated online resources in the BIOZONE Resource Hub, including videos and additional learning materials that extend and support classroom learning.

The worktext is ideal for classroom teaching, homework, independent study, revision, and exam preparation. Comprehensive model answers for all questions are included at the back of the book to support self-assessment and reinforce understanding.
