The Government & Politics curriculum helps students develop an in-depth knowledge and understanding of contemporary political structures, both in the UK and USA. We focus on how these structures have developed and changed as a result of political ideologies. The curriculum develops students’ understanding of how individuals and interest groups attempt to influence the political process and government policy. The aim is that students leave St Edward’s Academy well prepared for higher education and employment by developing academic and work skills.
It is expected that students will have achieved at least a Grade 6 in GCSE English Language to cope with the written aspects of the course. You do not need to have studied Government and Politics or Citizenship at GCSE in order to take an A-Level course in the subject. It is more important that you should have a lively and enquiring mind, an interest in politics and current affairs and a desire to explore new ideas.
By Examination only A-Level Each of the three Units is a 2 hour written exam 84 marks 33.3% of A Level
