About the course
The past causes the present and so our future. Examine
history through various different lenses and perspectives, as you learn to
appreciate contrasting interpretations as well as critique them. A Level
History studies Tudor England, Weimar and Nazi Germany. You will also conduct
your own independent investigation into an area of less-explored history, such
as the British Empire, the Glorious Revolution, Russian economics, witchcraft,
Irish republicanism and Yugoslavian identity. Develop your skills with primary
and secondary sources and assess their limitations due to provenance.
