History

Entry Requirements

The most important attribute for a student of History is a genuine interest in, and enthusiasm for, the subject. A typical student will have an enquiring mind and enjoy discussing her opinions and analysing the arguments of others. It is also advisable to be willing to read widely and to be able to write clear and well supported arguments. However, all of the skills necessary for success are taught during lessons, so it is not essential to have studied History at GCSE in order to achieve your potential.
