We all have an interest in some aspects of the past. You may be interested in the great personalities, the insight into human nature and achievement, or the failures, cruelty and barbarity of which human beings are capable. If you have a sense of exploration and discovery then you will enjoy History – and if you enjoy it then the reading and the written work will not be a chore.
While it is desirable that you have achieved a least a Level 6 in GCSE History, we will welcome you even if you did not take the subject as long as you are enthusiastic and have a least Level 6 Grades in English and other humanities subjects. To be successful, you must have the ability to take careful notes, evaluate sources and write intelligent, well-constructed essays.
