It will enable you to develop your knowledge about society, the experiences of different social groups and social problems such as rising crime. rates. It involves studying societies and the way that they shape people's behaviour, beliefs, and identity. Sociology enables us to make sense of the rapidly changing world that we live in. Perhaps most fundamentally of all, Sociology enables us to understand ourselves and our position within society. Where will it lead? Sociology complements other Social Science and Humanities subjects as well as working well with Health and Social Care or Business. It can be taken by those wishing to balance a Science or Humanities curriculum with a Social Science. As an A-level subject Sociology teaches you many transferable skills that are essential in any chosen career path. It allows students to develop their analytical and evaluative skills preparing them well for higher education and many Sociology students go on to study the subject further at University. A degree in Sociology can also lead to many different areas of work such as Healthcare, Marketing, Law, Social Work, Research and Teaching.

Recent opportunities have included a talk at the school by John Berkow, speaker of the House of Commons, visits to the Old Bailey and BFI film festival and attendance at the St Mary’s university annual conference on human trafficking.
