4th A level?

I'm in year 11 and haven't even applied for college yet.
I am definitely choosing:-
English Lang&Lit, Philosophy of Religion & Ethics and World Development
I'm not very good at Maths or the Sciences. I am okay at essay writing subjects
In university I'd like to either do Primary Education with QTS or English.
Any recommendations? :3
Sociology is a good choice.

Health and social care? If you want to work with children this would be useful to have.
I'm in year 11 and thinking of doing primary education with QTS at uni, I've done quite a bit of research and unis seem to like a humanity (history/geography) if you're going into primary teaching??

History


I don't know if that's a good idea - i've never taken a class in it before! ;o

Psychology?
Very helpful if you would like to work with children also, it is an essay based subject! (yaaaaay :biggrin:)
It's not complicated and doesn't require you to apply your knowledge as much, mainly remembering and rewriting studies and approaches :smile:
Alternatively I'd recommend sociology.

It is a respected subject, most of the universities like it and it is an essay based one too .. you may discuss with your teacher about this choice ..

socialogy is good, but is considered a 'soft subject'
History may be a good one, as it is quite repeatable.
My friend takes Philosophy&ethics, History, English and Government&politics, which are all essay based subjects
