Government and Politics is taught in AS and A-Level and it is designed to give the students a comprehensive understanding of how the UK political system works and contemporary political issues work. The AS course provides students with a focus on the UK political system which is then extended in the second year by introducing a study of political ideologies.

Examples of modules taught: People and Politics, Governing the UK, Introducing the Political Ideologies, Global Political Issues.
