Offers students the opportunity to study the people, events and decisions that have shaped Britain, Europe, and the world. Through interrogation of primary sources and critical materials about different periods in history, students develop an appreciation of the forces that have shaped our world, and the attitudes and beliefs that inform decision making. The course fosters analytical and research skills, as well the ability to write clearly and concisely.
Students seeking to join Milton Abbey in the Sixth Form are judged on individual merit regarding their suitability for our courses. Course choices are made in consultation with the Head or Deputy Head, and the Head of Sixth Form. For A-Level students we usually require a B-Grade (Level 6) in relevant GCSE subjects, but we are always open to discuss individual circumstances. We also have a popular range of more vocational BTEC courses, which have more flexible admission requirements. For entry into the Sixth Form, candidates' Admissions Visits will include an interview with the Head or her Deputy, a Housemaster or Housemistress, and the Head of Sixth Form. They will also be given a tour of the school, be able to meet current Sixth Formers, and visit the Boarding Houses.
Traditional A-Level with final assessment. Full A-Level only. • 2 x 2hr30min written exams • 3000-3500 word historical investigation: Worth 20% of the A-Level
