Sociology is the study of society, and an A Level in Sociology helps you better understand the world around you. If you have a curious mind, and an interest in people and different cultures, then Sociology is the subject for you. This course will give you a deeper understanding of societies all over the world, including their culture, traditions, and ideologies, and how they originated. Alongside this, you will study the main theories of sociology, the forces they have, and how they still influence and predict social change.
