History

Entry Requirements

The basic entry requirement onto most courses is a minimum of a grade 6 at GCSE in an appropriate subject, however, those students who embark on A Level studies with a grade 7 or above are likely to find the transition much easier. In some cases there may be further restrictions e.g. a minimum of a grade 6 in Maths to do Physics. Please see the following individual subject pages for further details. Students must also have achieved at least a grade 4 in both Maths and either English Language or Literature to qualify for entry into the Sixth Form. Anyone wishing to study History at A Level should have a genuine interest in the subject and at least a grade 6 in GCSE History. Students who have not taken History at GCSE are welcome providing their performance in English is grade 6 or above.
