The History GCSE course focuses on some of the key events and periods of the Twentieth Century. Pupils study four areas of European and World history: the origins and course of the First World War, the history of Germany between the world wars, the development and key events of the Cold War and the history of conflict in the Middle East. As such the subject not only provides pupils with a knowledge of the twentieth century, but it also gives them an excellent understanding and context for events today and of the world around them.
Entry to the Sixth Form is subject to a minimum requirement of 5 GCSEs at Grade 6 unless there is a compelling reason to modify this requirement, and in any event, where this is necessary it will usually lead to the applicant being offered a BTEC or BTEC with one A Level as a Sixth Form course. Candidates must achieve at least a Grade 6 at GCSE in any subject to be studied at A level, and a Grade 7 in the case of Mathematics, any Science or a Modern Foreign Language.
