SOCIAL SCIENCES PATHWAY

Our Social Science pathway includes elements of both the Arts and the Sciences. It allows students to develop an understanding of human behaviour and how the systems of law and social rules change over time. You will compare and contrast complex and competing theories and develop an understanding of human behaviour. You will be supported with how to write academic essays and referencing, as well as carry out research and experiments, and present your findings.
