Studying History is a journey of discovery. Students learn to understand the world and at the same time are trained in high level skills that create independent young adults. Universities and employers value these skills. The ability to organise facts and develop arguments, to analyse problems and make reasoned decisions are the skills honed by this well-respected subject. History can lead to History focused careers such as Archaeologists, Museum Curators and so on. However, being realistic, most students who take History at A-level will not continue with the subject beyond university except for interest and pleasure. This makes the subject no less vital to the futures of young people as the skills developed through the subject are key skills for success in business and life in general. Famous people such as several recent Prime Ministers and Sacha Baron Cohen have History degrees to thank for their own personal development. History graduates are sought after and successful people.

A-level: 3 x exams (1 ½ hrs, 1hr, 2 ½ hrs) + 3,000-4,000 word coursework essay.
