Course Details

Studying A Level Politics will give you an understanding of British politics, exploring pressure groups, devolution, voting systems, and how political decisions shape everyday life. Go further and discover the forces of globalisation and the role of influential bodies such as the UN, NATO, and the IMF. You'll analyse a range of differing ideologies, from anarchism to conservatism and everything in between. Alongside hearing from inspiring guest speakers and getting stuck into lively debates, you'll take your learning beyond the classroom with visits to the University of Hull, Parliament, and the Supreme Court in London.
