History

Course summary

At Immanuel we teach the AQA GCE History specification. This means that in the courses we offer we think about the ‘why?’ and the ‘how?’ of history, not just the ‘what?’. Students have to consider what history is all about and then apply this to look at specific individuals, themes and periods of time. The course allows students to build on the skills and knowledge they’ve acquired at key stage 3 and GCSE level. It will appeal to independent learners with curious and enquiring minds, people who like to think critically and reflectively. Students will ask questions, make links and draw comparisons, evaluate evidence and organise their ideas to reach substantiated judgements.
