Course summary

History lets students enlarge their understanding of human experience, evaluate arguments effectively, handle evidence critically and communicate complex issues clearly. The study of past societies, individuals, and situations increases the capacity for empathy, the abilities to process information, defend opinions and to subject claims to scrutiny. Students study modules that support each other in course content and allow them to understand this period from multiple perspectives. It is not essential to have studied GCSE History, but the skills developed there provide an effective foundation for more advanced study. These modules may alter if staffing within the department changes.
