Through this course, we will explore a number of Scientific claims that influence our everyday lives and discuss some of the available research to decide if we believe these claims to be fully, partially, or no longer correct or relevant. We will consider the evidence used in our research to determine if we trust the sources used and, if they are reliable, or if we think they should be discounted. Be prepared for lots of discussion and sharing of thoughts and ideas.

In this course, students will be introduced to how to analyse films as though they were literary texts. This will involve learning entirely new techniques and concepts specific to the world of films as well as discussing and analysing various famous clips. Along the way we will discuss and explore film history, cinematography, mise-en-scene, and sound effects in a range of films from Harry Potter to Indiana Jones to 2001: A Space Odyssey. Armed with these new analytical tools, students will never watch a film in quite the same way again!

Napoleon Bonaparte once said, “Let China sleep, when she wakes she will shake the world.”

Could Napoleon really have predicted the rapid growth of China into the economic and financial superpower that it is today? This module will analyse the success of China in both social and economic areas to understand the history and the government objectives for the future. In order to be forward looking Global Citizens, it is important that our students understand the society and environment in which they live.

Have you ever wondered how lightning is created? How we go from single-celled organisms into the most intelligent species on the planet? Or even, how we generate electricity to power our homes? During this course, you will learn the answers to these questions and a whole lot more.

One of the most important questions that an author must answer before writing any narrative is: who is going to tell the story and from what perspective? In this course, we will consider the different factors that affect how a writer answers this question by exploring a range of narrative perspectives through the study of extracts from literary fiction – both classic and contemporary. As well as attaining a deeper understanding of narrative crafting, the students will learn some key terminology, practice the skills of textual analysis, and discuss their personal opinions.

We are entering the era of Generation Alpha, the first group of children to be born entirely in the 21st Century and the 3rd Millennial. These children face rapid changes unknown to previous generations. This is the age where children’s entertainment has been increasingly dominated by smart technology and they are the first to incorporate artificial intelligence into everyday life. Change is all around and we must prepare our children for a future unknown to us, where the best education is accessible, previous life-threatening diseases become manageable conditions, and consumers’ every desire is at the touch of their fingertips. Knowledge is power and this course aims to explore the changes that technology is aiding. Students will explore the rapid developments in education, health and consumer goods and evaluate their success.
