Do you enjoy a good argument? Are you interested in current affairs? Do you think Theresa May is a good or a bad Prime Minister or that the Labour Party has good or bad policies? Are you interested in finding out more about how the UK Parliament and Judiciary work and about theories like Socialism and Liberalism? If so, Politics is for you. In Year 13, you can study Global Politics - finding out about the main international bodies like the UN, EU and NATO and then look at the international response to problems such as genocide in Sudan, human rights abuse in Burma and poverty in the global south. Students who enjoy History, Geography and Religious Studies are likely to do well.
