    It's been a while since you posted and no one else’s replied yet, so you might want to check out MarkedbyTeachers.com, TSR's sister site. It’s the largest essay help site in the UK.

    They've got a library of 150,000+ essays, projects, assignments, coursework etc.. written by GCSE, A Level and Uni students. You get access either by publishing some of your own work, or paying £4.99 for a month's access. Both ways give you unlimited access to all of the essays.

    They submit all the documents to Turnitin anti-plagiarism software, so the work can't be misused, and the site’s used by hundreds of thousands of UK teachers and students.

    Hope you find it useful

    Don't know if this is too late but (I'm presuming you actually know some of the policies?) the question is asking you to outline them, so just do that. For 12 marks you could do with at least 4-5 ways. You don't need to go into too much detail, just enough to explain briefly e.g. you could write about how the introduction of league tables brought about competition between schools to be the best and attracted the students with the most potential, which would usually be from middle class families, people who's parents bothered to check out these things etc etc.

    If you're really really stuck, PM me and I can dig out my old books for you and give you some pointers. I took that exam in January and got 110 out of 120 marks, so yeah...

    Really confused as to how many sociological methods there are and how many different categories they come under!?!?

    Are there only two categories: Primary and Secondary?
