A Level Criminology Course Overview

WJEC Level 3 Criminology is a vocational program that integrates elements of psychology, law, and sociology. This course is designed to provide students with valuable knowledge and insights into the complexities of the criminal justice system within meaningful contexts.

Lessons are dynamic and responsive to the evolving nature of crime, utilising research and social policy to critically assess the effectiveness of the criminal justice system. Through project-based research and independent learning, students develop their critical thinking and evaluative skills, applying them to real-world case studies.

Students are encouraged to reflect on how the knowledge they acquire influences their understanding of the criminal justice system and its impact on individuals, communities, employers, society, and the environment. This holistic approach fosters a deeper appreciation of the interconnectedness of criminology and its implications for various stakeholders.
