History

Assessment

On our AQA A-level course, you will study an eclectic range of topics and periods. You will study core units on the Tudor monarchs of England from 1485 to 1603, combined with a Depth Study of Germany from the Weimar Republic to the end of Nazi rule. These two units will be assessed in an exam, at the end of Y13. Your exam will include essay questions and source/interpretation questions. Your coursework will take the form of an independent investigation, allowing you to conduct your own research into African American civil rights! You will also have the opportunity to visit the Durham University library, take part in the lessons from the Auschwitz Project, and other local and overseas visits.
