Our Subjects Sociology

Sociology is an interesting and rigorous academic subject with a broad range of content. It is the study of society and human behaviour, exploring topics such as gender equality, race and culture, politics and class structures. Students use data and empirical research to explore these social issues from different perspectives.

We teach Sociology at A Level and university level. Due to high levels of demand, our Sociology specialists also offer A Level taster lessons for Year 11 students, university guidance, and personal statement support. This has proven helpful for students wishing to study Sociology at university without prior experience. Through discussion and written tasks, our students develop a mature and sophisticated understanding of real issues in our society such as inequality, an ageing population, and incarceration. They develop clarity of thought and become effective communicators, verbally and in writing.

Our Sociology teachers have experience teaching the A Level curriculum in high performing UK schools. We encourage students to read widely to develop a good knowledge of current affairs and social issues. In person or online, our lessons deliver the A Level Sociology content in an accessible and engaging way. As exams approach, our focus is on essay planning, model answers, and exam technique.
