The Politics Department is a small two teacher department which runs the Government and
Politics A level course in the Sixth Form. In Year 12 there are normally 20 to 25 students
studying the AS level course and in Year 13 approximately 12-15 students, these are split into two
sets. Currently the department teaches the Edexcel A level course which considers the basics of how
the British political system works in Year 12 and the key political issues in Year 13. The
department is currently based within the Economics and Business Studies department and interactive
whiteboards are used extensively in our teaching.
