Course summary

Sociology has been referred to as the science of society and people. The role of the sociologist is to research possible reasons and solutions to many of the world’s pressing questions and issues. The AQA course begins the essential training of looking at these social phenomena from a sociological approach. Students will study inequalities in society and why they exist; they will look at why some people succeed in school whilst others fail. The A Level will examine the role of religion in our communities and how it impacts people today. The last A Level topic will ask questions about crime and deviance, with particular interest as to why some people are criminal and others are not. All of these topics and questions will examine current research and help discuss potential solutions.
