Studying Sociology develops your understanding of how society is organised and how we experience life. The skills and knowledge you develop throughout your course will often focus on the human activities and relationships that connect individuals, groups and institutions and are relevant to a wide variety of careers. You will have developed ideas relating to a range of human and societal issues including the economy, work, gender, race, social inequalities, social norms, deviance, the social environment, organisations, religion, class, relationships and health. For more information please refer to our website, or contact our Pastoral Leader of Sixth Form, Mr Adam Illingworth, a.illingworth@marriotts.herts.sch.uk
