Sociology
at Chipping Norton School, Chipping Norton · school or sixth form
What the college says
Sociology is a vibrant and exciting subject that will require you to think differently about the society in which we live. We hold common sense views on the various everyday things that make up our society; crime is rising, teenager pregnancies are increasing, religion is in decline, and education is failing many of its students. In this course we will look behind these headline ideas, challenge orthodox views, and examine the interesting and complex workings of society.
