Welcome to the Social Subjects Department<\/h5>\n

Our aim within the Faculty is to create a fun, motivating and stimulating learning environment where learners gain skills and knowledge that will assist them in their studies whilst also providing them with invaluable life skills. We are very passionate about our subjects and strive to make the learning relevant to what is happening in the world today, to the lives of pupils and their experiences.<\/p>\n

Geography<\/h5>\n

In Geography we are committed to delivering a wide range of topics that are relevant to the lives of our students. Geography helps young people to understand the ever changing world around them.<\/p>\n

We study Human, Physical, and Environmental Global Issues in Geography and how these aspects interact with each other. We encourage pupils to consider the importance of sustainability and Global Citizenship when learning about their world<\/p>\n

History<\/h5>\n

Studying History provides us with an insight into our own lives and of the society and the wider world in which we live. Through an understanding of the concept of continuity, you can better appreciate change and its significance, both in your own times and in the past. It is also intended to enable you to develop skills in explaining historical developments and events, evaluating sources and drawing conclusions.<\/p>\n

Modern Studies<\/h5>\n

Studying Modern Studies helps pupils to understand important issues in the world today which may affect them. It helps them to be able to gather information about these issues, evaluate the information\u00a0 and, most importantly, it helps them to make up their own mind and come to drawn conclusions about these issues.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
