Ancient History is a highly academic and challenging A Level course suitable for students wishing to study related subjects such as Archaeology, Ancient History or History itself at university. It requires a willingness to study ancient texts in depth and undertake research into Ancient Rome and Greece. It represents an alternative for those who enjoy History but would like to learn about something other than modern history; it requires dedication and application as independent study is an integral demand of the subject.
A minimum of 5 GCSE subjects at grade 5 A Grade 5 in GCSE History if taken Grade 5 in GCSE English
Pupils will undertake two examinations at the end of the course. One will focus on the Greek side of the course, and the second will focus on the Roman side of the course. Both examinations will be broken down to section A, which will assess the period study, and section B, which will assess the depth study. Both written examinations will be 2½ hours long.
