Course summary

If you have an enquiring mind, an ability to communicate effectively and an interest in contemporary social issues, A Level Sociology is the subject to study. Following the AQA 7191/7192 specification, you will study society and social interaction, exploring the themes of socialisation, culture and identity, social differentiation and power and stratification. We will discuss how society creates the citizens it wants, who decides how we should live our lives and how they got that power. We will also consider why we are not all treated in the same way. We will look at how families, the education system, the mass media and the criminal justice system operate and try to control us.
