Sociology is the scientific study of society, which enables us to understand its structure and dynamics. It looks at the relationship between institutions of power and the people, as well as the values, norms and customs of society. Sociology explores the workings of society, as well as theories and methods used to try to understand and explain it.
Students who wish to study GCE Advanced level courses are required to have passed at least five GCSE or equivalent level two courses in grades 5-9 including a minimum of grade 6 in the subjects they wish to study. Most students attempting A-level courses will have more than this minimum. In subjects not taught at GCSE a 5 in a related subject is required (for example, a 5/6 in English would enable a student to study Politics). All students entering year 12 would normally be expected to have achieved GCSE Grades 9 – 4 in English and Mathematics. Students without these qualifications will be helped to attain them early in their year 12 programme.
