Studying History demands an ability to examine evidence closely, evaluate the merits of different arguments and reach substantiated conclusions. It helps us understand the world we live in and how events and people have influenced the world around us. Reading History gives an awareness of the extent to which our views of the past are shaped by our concerns in the present and of how historians can construct very different narratives and reach quite different conclusions while agreeing about much of the factual detail. Writing History provides training in producing effective essays which follow a clear line of argument in support of a point of view. The full A Level qualification has two exams in Year 13.
