"Create a society where people matter more than things"
Archbishop Desmond Tutu |
Due to its reputation as a challenging, academic subject which develops skills of analysis, communication and problem solving, AS and A2 Government and Politics qualifications are regarded very highly by universities when students are selected for admission. Students who have studied this course will become successful independent thinkers and learners, both qualities which will serve them well, should they choose to go on to university.
All students are given an Independent Study Booklet that contains articles, relevant chapters and tasks to carry out. Students are encouraged to watch Question Time, Newsnight, CNN, Fox News and The Daily Show. Students should be reading the Times or the Independent during the AS course and the Washington Post and New York Times during the A2 course.
