In A Level Politics we aim for our students to leave the subject with fantastic grades and with the skills they will need to be successful at university and beyond. However, more than that, each student should leave with a love of the subject, curious to learn more and with a burning desire to discuss and debate the big issues and questions that affect us all. Studying Politics means asking the big questions. Who governs? Why do they govern? How should they govern? What should society look like? To answer these we study both British and American politics, drawing comparisons between how the two countries are governed. Alongside this we study key political ideas and ideologies. Throughout the subject students improve both their subject knowledge and intellectual skills and have countless opportunities to discuss those issues they feel strongly about.
We would normally require a Grade 6 at GCSE History or if GCSE History has not been not studied, a 6 for GCSE English Literature.
Three externally examined examination papers, each lasting 2 hours.
