Government and Politics

Course summary

The main reason for studying the subject at A-Level is likely to be a genuine interest in Politics, and with issues such as Brexit, snap elections, leadership challenges and minority governments all dominating the headlines there has never been a more interesting time to study the subject. The A-Level Politics course is extremely varied, and, in addition to studying contemporary UK Politics, students will also explore how the British political system has evolved over time through looking at the impact of events such as Magna Carta and the Great Reform Act.
