Studying History at A Level allows you to develop a deeper understanding of the motives of humankind. You will study a period of great change in British History where you will assess the ability of monarchs to affect religious change peacefully. You will develop your understanding of the role of belief in the history of the Middle East and how far governments can control and mould it. In studying history, you will learn to acquire historical knowledge independently and this will improve your research skills. You will develop a mind open to evaluating both sides of an argument. You will learn to make well considered judgements and use evidence to support them. Plenty of opportunity will be provided to develop your writing skills to communicate your opinions in a sophisticated fashion. The ability to criticise sources and their interpretations is central to the course. You will be expected to appreciate different interpretations of the past and to make your own judgements on them. The opportunity to follow your own line of enquiry will be provided in the A2 Historical Enquiry. The History course aims to develop an interest in and enthusiasm for History and it also provides a useful qualification. A study of History at this level forms a good basis for a range of careers including the law, journalism, broadcasting, public relations and marketing.
