This qualification will develop both critical and reflective thinking with an understanding of historical topics and issues; it will also encourage an awareness of the importance of historical awareness in explaining contemporary issues. History A-level provides a fantastic curriculum to ignite and engage learners’ passions and interests. Our content will create independent learners, critical thinkers and decision–makers – all personal assets that can make them stand out as they progress to higher education and/or the workplace. A Level History challenges students’ minds and develops their abilities in a number of key ways: Research, analysis, communication, Time management, ICT, working with others, problem solving, as well as planning and organizing.
The standard entry criteria to study in the sixth form are a 9-4 in at least seven different subjects, including English and mathematics, which would usually be at grade 4 or above. To study other subjects already taken at GCSE you must achieve at least a grade 5 or above in that subject.
Unit groups 1–3 are assessed entirely through written examinations that are externally marked. All examinations take place at the end of the course. Unit group 4 is assessed internally, then moderated externally and submitted before the examinations begin, in May.
