History

Course summary

This course builds on the skills developed through GCSE History and gives students an opportunity to broaden their historical knowledge by studying a range of British and European political, social and economic events. Students will be able to engage with historical debate and critically assess their own views about events and people. There is a strong debating tradition within A-Level History to support the written work. Students are expected to complete a wide range of additional reading and become independent, thoughtful learners.
