History at RHS is a vibrant and thriving subject that offers excellent opportunities for independent study and intellectual growth. The History Department is comprised of a team of subject specialists who are deeply passionate about their field. In every class, you will benefit from the expertise of two teachers, both of whom bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the classroom, ensuring that students can fully realise their potential. We organise masterclasses to delve deeper into historical topics and students enter competitive essay competitions that challenge them to showcase their historical knowledge and analytical skills. We believe that first-hand experiences can bring history to life. That's why we organise trips to London and Berlin. These trips provide students with unique opportunities to explore historical sites, museums, and cultural landmarks, enhancing their understanding of the topics studied. Students will learn how to effectively communicate their understanding of historical events and concepts. This cultivates confidence in expressing their ideas. Furthermore, history teaches students to develop their critical thinking skills, which helps students navigate the complexities of an ever-changing world. By choosing A Level History at RHS, you embark on a captivating journey that not only expands your historical knowledge but also hones critical thinking, research, and communication skills that will serve you well in various academic and professional pursuits.
