POLITICS A LEVEL

According to MP and conservative thinker Edmund Burke (1729-1797) society is ‘ a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead and those who are to be born’, therefore it is vital that knowledge is passed down to different generations Politics A level will allow you to understand and engage with the world around you whilst understanding how we got to where we are

This A Level covers both core and non-core ideologies and the relevant debates on how thinkers related to these beliefs have looked at human nature, society, the state and the economy.

There has never been a more important time to study Politics and to understand the societies in which we live, work and study!

TORRIN WILKINS Long Road Class of 2017 Think Tank Director

I decided to study at Long Road because the Politics department was highly recommended, so it was a no-brainer. The thing I enjoyed most was the supportive atmosphere, all members of staff always tried to help whenever they could.

After college I started my own think tank called Centre, its predecessor being something I actually started whilst I was at Long Road. My work has been covered by newspapers, I presented a paper to the largest All-Party Parliamentary Group in history, who encouraged the government investigate our proposals, and I’ve been interviewed by the BBC and LBC I wouldn't be where I am without Long Road.
