History is the exploration of the past through the eyes of those who could tell their story. It looks at the people, problems of the past, changing society, key events and their significance on the world we live in today. It is a quest to find evidence and critically evaluate it, to draw reasoned conclusions about the past.
Students who wish to study GCE Advanced level courses are required to have passed at least five GCSE or equivalent level two courses in grades 5-9 including a minimum of grade 6 in the subjects they wish to study. Most students attempting A-level courses will have more than this minimum. In subjects not taught at GCSE a 5 in a related subject is required (for example, a 5/6 in English would enable a student to study Politics). All students entering year 12 would normally be expected to have achieved GCSE Grades 9 – 4 in English and Mathematics. Students without these qualifications will be helped to attain them early in their year 12 programme.
