In studying A-Level History students are equipped to analyse, not only the past, but the present world. The course provides an excellent and broad foundation for History at degree level, but the skills developed in AS and A level History will also be useful for a range of university courses and employment options. Qualifications in History are well respected, and the knowledge and critical skills you develop are valuable in a variety of careers e.g. law, politics, business management, journalism, marketing, travel and tourism, teaching and accountancy.
It is expected that candidates will have a Grade B or higher in GCSE History and a 6 in English GCSE. If you did not take GCSE History or achieved a C in GCSE history, it is sometimes possible, in the right circumstances, to take AS and A2 History. Your performance in your other GCSE subjects will be a major factor if this is the case. To guarantee progression on to the A2 course requires that you achieve at least a grade ‘D’ at AS level If you are hoping to study an A Level qualification you will need to have achieved at least 5 grade ‘C’s in 5 separate subjects. This must include a grade 5 in both English Language and Mathematics. Our Vocational courses are for those students who achieved a minimum of 5 GCSEs at grade C or above.
