In a time of a rapid change such as ours, the past is more important than ever. History helps us to make sense of our world in its human variety. Our courses look at key moments in modern history, developing a critical understanding of the past. Young people aged 16-18. In the first year the focus of our study will be on the search for rights, freedoms and greater equality in the twentieth century. You will examine the impact of these demands on the United States 1917 - 96 as previously excluded groups pressed for the fulfilment of the promise of the American Dream, and on India 1914 - 48 where rising nationalism clashed with imperial rule. In the second year you will broaden your historical understanding through the examination of how Britain lost a large part of its North American empire in the late eighteenth century but then proceeded to build an even larger one in the nineteenth century. In the second year you will also complete coursework that will be worth 20% of your overall mark.
