15 Mar Social Studies Club
Well done!
The Social Studies department have just launched a new extra-curricular club, for KS4 and KS5 students. The aim of the club is to create interest in our subjects (psychology, sociology, politics, health & social care and CeFS) and encourage curiosity in all things social studies related.
It is a great opportunity for students currently studying our subjects to explore topics beyond the curriculum or for students interested in pursuing our subjects post-16/post-18 to get an insight into related topics.
The club launched last week, with a focus on psychology. The session was led by Mrs House who explored the topic of aphantasia, a phenomenon known as being ‘mind blind’.
Students that attended completed a test to see whether they were aphantasic and then discussed the causes of aphantasia and how it presents in individuals. Students thoroughly enjoyed the activity and had fun exploring a phenomenon they were unaware of prior to attending.
KS4 and KS5 students, please keep an eye out in the notices for future session topics. We look forward to welcoming you.
