GCE A2 in Sociology

UPDATED 20161128 09:44:02

There are three examinations that assess knowledge and understanding, social theory and research methods, analysis and evaluation of social issue and concepts and applying real life examples and policies to sociological processes. Sociology is taught using a variety of methods including group work, lecturing and personal research. There is a pack of materials to support each module but you are expected to add to these materials and supplement any notes you take in class. You will be expected to undertake various research projects in your own time and to report on them to the whole class. You will be given as much help as you need and you will receive individual tuition should you require it and ask for it. The staff offer a high degree of commitment and expect it from students.
