During the course you will be encouraged to develop your own sociological awareness through active engagement with the contemporary world. Sociologists are interested in explaining why society works the way it does and the extent to which our behaviour, experiences and life chances are shaped by our social class, age, gender, ethnicity and locality. Those interested in the subject will want to understand the world in which they live – how and why it functions as it does and who has power and who does not.

Most subjects will have additional entry requirements and all have a recommended GCSE Average Points Score (APS) as detailed in the Entry Requirements table. 5 or above at GCSE. APS: 4 5 or above in English Language or Literature
All units are assessed by written examination.
