It is the study of POWER: the people, organisations, events and ideas that shape our lives in Britain and the USA today. What topics do we study? In the Lower Sixth we try to answer such questions as: - What factors influence the way people vote? - Is our voting system fair? - Can we really trust our politicians? - What exactly do the main parties believe? In the Upper Sixth we study the USA: - Why did Joe Biden win the 2020 election? - Why are Americans still allowed to carry guns?
Pupils must normally achieve five GCSEs in grades 9 to 4, including English and Maths. Candidates are expected to have a grade of 6 or above in the subjects they wish to take in the Sixth Form. Consideration will be given in exceptional circumstances to change this by the Headmaster.
