Government and Politics

Entry Requirements

Entry to Sixth Form is by application and is dependent on the candidate achieving the minimum academic requirement of five GCSE grades at C or above (at least three at Grade B or above). The formal requirement to study Politics at A Level is GCSE History and/or English Language Grade 6 or higher. You must also be interested in current affairs and highly self-motivated. Success in the subject will be the result of an ability to work independently and the determination to develop a mature essay writing style. You will have the opportunity to visit the Houses of Parliament and UK Supreme Court. Those with a genuine interest in current political events in the UK and USA are highly likely to excel.
