Course summary

History teaches students how to analyse complex events, interpret evidence, and evaluate multiple perspectives. It encourages critical thinking, making students better at assessing arguments, spotting bias, and forming reasoned conclusions. Writing essays and reports in History helps students refine their ability to express ideas clearly and persuasively. This is a transferable skill useful in many careers. History allows students to explore different viewpoints, which can lead to a more open-minded approach to problem-solving and decision-making.
