The social sciences are the study of human behaviour and interaction in social, cultural, environmental, economic and political contexts. Social Science at Bracken Ridge State High School have both a historical and contemporary focus, from personal to global contexts, and considers challenges for the future. It includes the study of history, geography, civics and citizenship and economics. 

Through studying Social Sciences, students will develop the ability to question, think critically, solve problems, communicate effectively, make decisions and adapt to change. Thinking about and responding to issues requires an understanding of the key historical, geographical, political, economic and societal factors involved, and how these different factors interrelate.

In the Senior School, our students have the opportunity to specialise in Modern History and Geography.  These programs of study provide students with skills and abilities in writing, researching, evaluating and critically thinking which are effectively transferrable and relevant to other subjects and disciplines.
