Global Studies
Students will need to have an excellent grasp of English in order to take part in this programme, which focuses on subject areas such as:
- What is globalisation today?
- How can we best protect the environment?
- How does international finance work?
- How can we make predictions about the world?
- Why do people leave their home countries?
- What makes a strong political leader?
- Why are some countries rich and other countries poor?
- What is justice and how does it work?
For those who are interested in improving both their language skills and knowledge of global affairs, we have included International Relations as an academy option so you can do both!
