A2 Level Government and Politics

hey guys,

unfortunately my politics teacher has been struck off with a long term illness and - as there aren't many schools doing politics - there is no replacement on the horizon. This has left me pretty worried about my edexcel january module - unit 4 - which covers globalisation, the UN, polarity etc. I was wondering if anyone had any good notes on these topics or indeed knew any good websites or resources to help make my revision easier as I desperately need 3 As!!!

Cheers

Rob

You will be able to find an e-tutor somewhere online too.

Wow Rob we seem to be in remarkably similar situations. What are the chances we're in the same class or something???

Oh and you wouldn't be talking about the late Mr Gibbons would you (very very sad news)? He was such a good teacher! Do you just have Hughes now? I went to BSG but studied politics at BS last year and the year before! Lol. Do you have Gibbons summary sheets and booklets, because those are a great help too? If now PM me and I'll scan them and send them to you or sth.

Yeah that's right. Awful news :frown:

I took Politics last year, but dropped it after AS.

I think they have Hughes and Pyke now. Pyke's a history teacher though, so not sure if he is any good or not.

Yeh it's hughes and pyke covering the course. All things considered they're doing a good job. Any material would be much appreciated, the unit 4 exam is in 2 weeks!
