Government is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as ‘A group of people with the authority to govern a country or state; a particular ministry or office’. And Politics as ‘The activities associated with the governance of a country or area, especially the debate between parties having power’. Many defining political movements can trace their origins to the United Kingdom. We are a nation where political discourse and discussion is lively and strong, and where decisions made by politicians still influence the global political stage. Our universities are also renowned for the quality of their politics provision, with course such as PPE at Oxford educating many past, current and future global leaders. At Abbey College Cambridge you will be learning amongst students from around the world, and this will enable you to compare and contrast different systems of government. This subject will not only help you to understand how the world works, but also how to drive real change.
Minimum IELTS 5.5, or equivalent level qualification and successfully passing the college interview process. Students can sit an online English test administered by the college as proof of English level. 5 GCSE passes at Grade C or equivalent.
