Sociology is a diverse subject concerned with analysing human social behaviour, institutions and social processes. Pupils examine the development of human society from prehistoric hunter-gatherer groups to contemporary post-industrial societies and gain an appreciation of broad trends underlying social change and the formation of the modern world. Sociology involves the study of wealth, power, status, poverty and social class, as well as politics, race, nationalism and cultural identity. The course covers the role of family, education, religion, the media, leisure and the arts. Pupils also study government, social control systems and crime, international politics, globalisation, development and aid.
Sixth Form applicants are expected to achieve a minimum of six subjects in Grades 9 to 5 (including Mathematics and English) at GCSE, or international equivalent. Students are expected to have at least Grade 6 at GCSE in the subjects they wish to study at A level. Students wishing to take Further Mathematics at A level must have a Grade 8 in Mathematics at GCSE.
