History

Assessment

This is a linear A Level qualification with exams taking place at the end of Year 13 in addition to the submission of one piece of coursework. In line with school policy, you will complete exams at the end of Year 12 which will give a stand-alone AS qualification for anyone not continuing their studies to the full A Level qualification. The course content in Year 12 centers on the theme of nationalism, dictatorship, and democracy in twentieth-century Europe, focussing upon in-depth studies of Germany and Italy. In Year 13 you will study a British history option and complete one piece of coursework based upon a topic which realizes differing historical interpretations and debate.
