Sociology
Sociology is a subject which encourages students to consider the impact of society on individuals. The study of the impact of key social factors such as social class, age, gender and ethnicity encourages students to consider the wider influence of society on all of our lives.
As an option subject from Year 10, GCSE and A-level students are encouraged to debate and discuss current social issues such as discrimination, identity and poverty using an analytical and critical approach. Students can apply their sociological knowledge and skills to current social and political events.
