Modern Studies.... studied it all 6 years of High School. It is politics. I learnt a bit about China (1 child policy), a bit about America (Health care), International issues (NATO and UN) and a lot of UK politics (Scottish powers aka Devolved Powers and UK powers aka Reserved Powers)
Learnt about voting and the use of FPTP (First Past The Post system) which the UK use for voting. Very appropriate as that year I was getting to vote for the very 1st time when I was 18 years old. Visited The Scottish Parliament and spent a week working as a Witch Doctor to The First Minister (Amazing job got to travel to Edinburgh every day for this via a train felt so grown up lol)
Learnt so so much and to this day I'm still interested in politics. I really liked learning about the wars in Bosnia, Kosvo, Ireland (a bit) etc. Now a days the kids get taught about 9/11 etc
Question:
Least favourite subject to learn at school?
