Whether we like it or not politics is unavoidable: no matter our age, the government of the day is making policies that will affect us both in the short-term and long-term. Politics is how we can manage the conflicts and disagreements that arise through differing group interests and views often centred on these decisions. At King’s Ely we hope to develop students’ knowledge of current political affairs whilst exploring the dynamic nature of political parties and their ideologies. The course aims to develop the research and communication skills needed to make coherent arguments and reach balanced conclusions.
Obviously, you will not enjoy the course unless you have a genuine interest in politics, current affairs and the world around you. Students are expected to have a minimum Grade 6 from one or more of the following GCSE subjects: History, Geography, RS, English Language, English Literature or other humanities based subjects.
