What the college says

“I have really enjoyed A Level Sociology – it is a completely different way of thinking about the world” Students will study a range of topics which challenge them to understand the way that societies work. This course is ideal for those students who enjoy learning about the world in which they live and how they can contribute to it. It demands of students the ability to challenge their own understanding of human behaviour and the issues we face. Sociology is a highly engaging subject that considers why people behave in the way they do in different aspects of society for example in the family. It is a subject that involves debate and discussion; it enhances analytical skills and can be a stepping stone to a variety of different careers and further education.
