The historian David Thomson said that the study of History is the best liberal education that a student can have in the modern world. Such a study not only provides a context for your own life, but also helps you to develop an understanding of the world into which you have grown up and delivers a set of invaluable transferable skills. At a time of growing fundamentalism and intolerance in the modern world, the study of History will enable you to view complex problems objectively, thus promoting tolerance, the ability to see different sides of disputes and a growing understanding of the complexity of world events.
You will normally be expected to have at least a grade 7 at GCSE/IGCSE English Language and/or a grade 7 in History.
