History

Assessment

Students design their own question which must span 100 years of US history, then complete an extended piece of academic writing with tutorial support and lessons from their teacher in Year 13. The format of this unit will be very similar to that of a first-year undergraduate course. In Year 12, students will frame their question, develop their research through wider reading and examine and evaluate a variety of sources. This coursework makes up the final 20% of the A level.
