What the college says

Politics, perhaps more than any other A Level subject, explains the society in which we live. Politicians are responsible for the public services we use and how they are organised and funded. The decisions that affect our schools and colleges, our health service, and armed forces are all political decisions. Our rights and responsibilities as citizens – the power of the state over us, and our ability to choose and influence those in authority – also form part of politics. How fair and representative is our voting system? How do people organise themselves to put pressure on government? How powerful is Parliament? If you are interested in these and similar questions, then this is the subject for you.
