HISTORY AS & A LEVEL: History at A level is consistently one of the most popular choices for students studying A levels at Polesworth. There is no need to have studied History at GCSE in order to do A level as the periods studied are completely different and no knowledge is required. So if you couldn’t take History at GCSE because of limited options you will be more than welcome at A level. Results are consistently good and students enjoy their lessons which are all taught by a team of fully qualified, experienced A’ level teachers. History students are given the opportunity to develop and extend their interests in the subject across a broad spectrum of topics and approaches. The programme is wide-ranging, covering both European and British History, giving insight into many different areas of history including the political, social, economic and cultural aspects. From September 2015, following the introduction of new A Levels, we will be following a new programme of study. All students will take AS and we expect the majority of students to go on to complete the full A Level. Students will cover the following topics: Unit One - England 1199–1272. Unit Two -The Cold War in Europe 1941- 1995 Unit Three – Tudor Rebellions. Unit Four – Coursework. In addition the course will give you the chance to look more deeply into one of the issues arising from your study of the Tudors. You will produce coursework on issues such as the Spanish Armada, Henry VII’s Break with Rome, Bloody Mary, the execution of Mary Queen of Scots or many other topics
