Government & Politics A Level

UPDATED 20170126 00:41:21

Examining Body Edexcel Politics shapes our lives, what we can do, the type of society we live in, the chances we have to succeed. This course is for people who want to understand more about how politics and government actually work. You will learn about the grand ideas and vibrant movements that are transforming the world around us, and also see how seemingly arcane customs and obscure committees hold enormous power. In Year 12, we start by looking at politics in the UK. Who has the power, the importance of elections, what limitations there are on Parliament and the prime minister. We will learn how laws are made, and about the ever changing influence of political parties, the European Union and devolved government. We will also see some of the ways ordinary people interact with the government and the power they can wield. In Year 13, we extend our understanding further, and look in more detail at some specific issues touched on in Year 12.
