Course summary

The A Level Government and Politics specification is designed to encourage students to develop their critical thinking skills and enhance their ability to interpret, evaluate and comment on the nature of politics. Students acquire knowledge of the institutions and processes within the political system of the United Kingdom and United States and are encouraged to think and debate more widely about how other political systems may differ. There is also consideration of key ideologies including Liberalism, Conservatism, Socialisms and Anarchism. Students will develop a wide range of relevant skills including the ability to understand, synthesise and interpret political information. Furthermore, we will learn to identify connections, similarities and differences between the areas studied.

Entry requirements
