History

Course summary

A Level History provides a balanced diet of topics, both geographically and chronologically. Studying History is an opportunity to time travel, but it also helps us understand and make sense of the world we live in now. We are forced to face the complexity of human nature and the range of economic, political, social and cultural forces, which influence the behaviour of individuals. Our course includes a study of Russian, British and Chinese History from the 18th to the 20th centuries. The analytical skills developed through the study of History are extremely valuable and complement many other subjects.
