As a historian, you will never experience the events that you study; instead, you must build up a picture from the evidence that has been left. You must become skilled at asking questions of the evidence and to not take everything at face value. Historians are trained to look for bias and prejudice in the evidence they study. They know that humans often have strong views on many subjects, which may affect the statements they make. Imagine believing everything you read in the papers, or every statement that politicians make! History helps you to make decisions about other people and to decide if you trust what they say.
Entry to Sixth Form is by application and is dependent on the candidate achieving the minimum academic requirement of five GCSE grades at C or above (at least three at Grade B or above).
