Through our teaching, we explore contemporary politics and the distribution of power in modern Britain, as well as political concepts, values and ideologies.
Offers are conditional on GCSE (or IGCSE) grades. Candidates are expected to achieve at least eight passes including English and Mathematics, at least six should be grade 8 or 9, with no more than one grade 6 and the rest being a minimum of grade 7.
Politics is taught at A Level, though younger pupils are encouraged to get involved via the Junior Politics Society which provides a forum for the discussion on any area of interest and encourages scholarship. For example, topics have included Indian politics, voting behaviour in recent elections and also The Northern Ireland peace process. The two-year course covers the British political system and political ideologies. In the second year, pupils are allowed to choose between studying the American political system or international relations. Mock elections and referendums allow pupils to get involved with campaigning and hustings. There is also the Polecon Society which allows for scholarship and deeper exploration of subjects, often with external speakers.
