Sociology

Intent

Sociology is the study of social life, social change, and the social causes and consequences of human behaviour. Sociologists investigate the structure of groups, organisations, and societies, and how people interact within these contexts. The curriculum offered to pupils at BBG allows them to actively develop this knowledge through theory-based learning and application of knowledge, pupils are encouraged to critically evaluate the world in which they live in and make connections between sociological theory and relevant current affairs. Sociology is not currently offered to students in years 7 or 8 but is an option that can be taken at GCSE level. In GCSE Sociology, pupils follow the AQA specification, looking at factors that impact the changing nature of families, the education system and responses to crime and deviance.
