Introduction In terms of our existence on Earth, it was only yesterday since mankind was living in caves and the day before when we were swinging from branch to branch with other creatures. Yet we have developed into an extremely complex society, with issues and problems. So how do we as human beings live and work daily within this complicated system and structures, as individuals, tribes, communities and families? Throughout the next two years you will take a fascinating and exciting journey to discover some of the answers. Sociology will allow you to understand and make sense of the globalised world we live in. It will enable you to draw upon contemporary issues, for example the summer riots in 2011, ASBO's and youth subcultures when studying crime and deviance or when studying beliefs, to investigate the growing numbers of cults, sects and new religious movements, such as the Moonies and Scientology.
4 GSCE Grades B/5 or above, plus at least a Grade 4 in English Language and Mathematics. It is important that students have an interest in why people act in certain ways and are aware of current affairs and social issues. Some students may have studied sociology at GCSE, but this isn't necessary to study it at A-level. However, if students have studied GCSE Sociology, then they should have achieved at least a grade C/4.
