Sometimes the teacher will lead the lesson while on other occasions there will be far more independent learning.

The teacher will be on hand to guide and advise you, but it is your motivation and organisation that are crucial. You may be asked to carry out source investigations, internet research, presentations or debates. Visits and student conferences help extend learning beyond the classroom. The course is assessed through one coursework unit and 2 exam-based units.
