Use critical sociological tools to develop a deep understanding of the social, historical, political, economic and developmental contexts of education. Learn about education from a team who’ve influenced policy and practice in Wales and beyond, and explore education through the lens of culture, identity, youth, gender, ethnicity, social justice and inclusion. See how sociology intertwines with education, where you’ll analyse all aspects of social conduct, from face-to-face interactions to global socioeconomic forces.
