Leaving Certificate Biology

Leaving Certificate Biology — Higher Level

A clear, visual and exam-focused guide covering the new Higher Level Leaving Certificate Biology specification.

Written by Biology and Chemistry teacher Caoimhe Ní Mhuircheartaigh, this full-colour revision book breaks complex material into structured explanations, diagrams, key terminology and relevant exam practice. Caoimhe’s visual approach is informed by her own experience of dyslexia and her understanding of how overwhelming dense, text-heavy notes can feel.
