We discuss how far people’s actions resulted from moral or religious beliefs and question what the pursuit of power has done to nations and individuals. This enables us to question whether people’s lives were shaped more through the actions of their leaders than the wider forces of social and economic change. Through the study of history, you will gain an understanding of problems afflicting the modern world such as aggressive nationalism and religious conflict, as well as understand more about how we come to be who we are today. As well as encouraging you to think about both the past and the present, studying A Level History helps develop valuable skills, including the ability to absorb a large amount of information, to present it with clarity and discrimination, to write with fluency, to have critical powers of analysis and to work in a self-disciplined manner.
To study at the Stephen Perse Sixth Form, you need IELTS 6.0+ and a minimum of a 7 at (I)GCSE in the subjects you wish to study at A Level (or 8 in Maths for Further Maths). Conditional offers based on (I)GCSE results will be made to each individual applicant.
