My teacher gave us some example questions for policy that she thinks might come up. Here they are:

--> Evaluate the view that educational policies lead to inequalities between different:
- Social Classes
- Ethic Groups
- Genders
--> Evaluate the view that marketisation and privatisation policies lead to educational inequalities between social groups.
--> Evaluate the view that over time educational policy making has lead to greater equality of opportunity and better educational outcomes for social groups.
--> Evaluate the sociological explanations of the relationship between education and globalisation.
--> Evaluate the view that the main aim of education policies in the last 40 years has been to create an education market.

Hope these help

Do you know for weber and protestant work ethic and calvinism
how does it cause social change
becuase if they believe in predestination - with wanting to please God, then they will work hard and get material success but live an ascetic lifestyle so the spare money that they have is reinvested back into society and business' so doesn't that contribute to capitalism
so where does the social change come from??

how many paragraphs are you guys gonna do for the 30

does anyone have any predictions for the theory and methods 10 maker?

i have a feeling it would be on theories rather than methods, maybe micro theories or structural theories, past papers have focused on methods with a few theory questions so i think this year's might be theories on those areas.
