Club & Societies at School

Dissection Club

This academic club provides students with an opportunity to learn about a broad range of vertebrate animals and organs through the traditional medium of dissection. Sessions will be a mix of demonstrations and discussion as well as hands-on work. In demonstrations you will be able to observe a dissection of an animal or organ, ask questions and handle organs. Many sessions, however, will be more practical and you will also have the opportunity to work in pairs or small groups to dissect specimens while supervised by myself and a member of the 6th Form.
