The Russell Group report published in 2011 names geography as one of the eight facilitating subjects. This is a subject most likely to be required or preferred for entry to degree courses and choosing facilitating subjects will keep more options open to you at university. Geography is an obvious choice for careers in sustainability and green issues, urban regeneration, energy supply, retail location, managing the effects of hazards and climate change. For careers in the world of business, an understanding of global economics forms an important part of geography. For a career in law, human rights, international relations or welfare, then geography gives you the opportunity to consider relevant issues. If you are working towards a future course in Medicine or Veterinary Medicine then Geography is a good choice to give your A Level options the breadth that universities seek.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"red\" \/>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><\/p>","excerpt":""},{"url":"https:\/\/prospectus.leyton.ac.uk\/course\/a-level-history","name":"A Level History","content":"<div class=\"is-flex is-justify-content-space-between is-flex-wrap-wrap\"><a class=\"link-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/prospectus.leyton.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferer\">BUILD YOUR BESPOKE PROSPECTUS<\/a>\r\n<a class=\"link-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.leyton.ac.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferer\">RETURN TO MAIN WEBSITE<\/a><\/div>\r\n<a class=\"blue-btn\" href=\"https:\/\/lscapply.leyton.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferer\">APPLY NOW<\/a>\r\n<h2>What is this course about?<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">Gain a deep understanding of historical periods, refine your analytical skills, and challenge established ideas.

Sociologists <\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">try to understand human behaviour, and to do <\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">this, they also try to understand how other <\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">people affect us. Sociologists ask questions about society and attempt to find answers to those questions. For example, why do some children do better in school than others? Are single parents a problem for society? Why are women more religious than men? Does class still exist? These are vital questions. If you become a sociology student you will not be provided with quick answers. What you will discover is how to think about these issues for yourself: what are the questions behind the questions? Generations of students have found that sociology makes them look at the world in new ways and this is why so many students quickly become passionate about the subject \u2013 and why it is still pioneering after more than a hundred years. Sociology is a fascinating subject for people with questioning minds. Sociologists look beyond what we consider to be normal and unravel issues which affect our everyday lives.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"pink\" \/>\r\n\r\n<h2>What units\/topics will be studied?<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">Component 1:<\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"> Socialisation, culture and identity <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">Component 2:<\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"> Researching and understanding social inequalities<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">Component 3: <\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">Debates in contemporary society: <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">a) Globalization &amp; the Digital World\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">b) Religion, belief and faith.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"green\" \/>\r\n\r\n<h2>What do I need to study this subject?<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">GCSE Point score of 34, which must include a <\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">grade 5 in English Language.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"yellow\" \/>\r\n\r\n<h2>What can I do to prepare myself to study this subject?<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">A willingness to keep up-to-date with current <\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">affairs is essential.

Working with an experienced producer or teacher is useful for this, although some students make good progress through teaching themselves using online resources. The more practical experience a student has the better so we recommend applicants get involved in as much music as possible (both inside and outside of school).\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/P56Kt0eCqSc\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"orange\" \/>\r\n\r\n<h2>Where can this lead me?<\/h2>\r\n<p data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">The UAL Level 3 Extended Diploma in Music Performance &amp; production is equivalent to three A Levels and by itself is an excellent entry route for university courses or work in the music industry.
