The History Department aims to ensure that all students develop skills of critical thinking, incisive analysis, effective oral and written argument, reading between the lines, essay writing and more. History is not simply a dry series of dates and events, but an ongoing process of investigation, analysis, selection, debate and writing. Teachers with a genuine passion for their subject bring History to life using a wide variety of teaching styles to help different students learn in different ways. History is one of the most popular option choices at A-level, highlighting the success of our GCSE programmes. At A-level, students undertake a depth-study the USA from1945-1980, and a breadth-study of British history from 1783-1885.
Year 11 students transfer automatically into the Sixth Form, provided that they have gained at least five subjects at grade 6 and above, including English Language and mathematics, and with no less than a grade 6 (ideally a 7, 8 or 9 grade) in the subjects, or related, with which they wish to continue at A level. In addition, the student’s record of conduct and attitude must meet the appropriately high expectations of the school’s Sixth Form
