Government & Politics

UPDATED 20160331 09:59:20

The Government and Politics A-level is suited to pupils who have a good command of English and who are interested in the modern world. The lessons really focus on political developments in the UK and Europe. As such, anyone who is interested in key issues affecting the country will enjoy the course. Each year we attend a Politics conference in Westminster and the speakers this year include George Galloway, Nigel Farage, David Blunkett, John Bercow, Alan Duncan and Simon Hughes. We have been to the European Parliament in Brussels and had talks from an MEP and key officials who work in the Institutions there and we hope to go again this year.
