Sociology in Action

An inspiring A-level Sociology day exploring today’s biggest social issues through expert talks, discussion and exam-focused insights.

Programme

We are delighted to be partnering with Education in Action to host a series of subject-focused academic events on campus during 2026/27 for GCSE, A level, IB and BTEC students. 

This outstanding enrichment day for enthusiastic A-level Sociology students is coming to the Midlands this autumn, to take place in the beautiful Elgar Concert Hall at the University of Birmingham. In a cutting-edge and inspiring programme, leading sociologists, academics and media personalities will address a range of challenging and powerful questions on how society functions, the factors which influence our choices and how we experience life. Presenting a unique opportunity for students to immerse themselves in today’s big sociological issues, this day will take students beyond their classroom experience, and leave them buzzing with new ideas and fresh perspectives.

Topics covered on this day will include education, crime, disability, race, and media. This exciting day will include an invaluable lunchtime exam session to propel students to even greater success. Join us for an inspirational, immersive and interactive day of sociology! Book now to secure your places!
