These specifications aim to introduce more 'stretch and challenge' into History at AS/A level. Candidates develop expertise in historical skills and acquire knowledge and understanding through the ability to study a wide range of topics in British, European and American History from the medieval period through to the late twentieth century.

Benefits

• The ethos and strengths have been maintained in the four unit (two at AS level, two at A2) format.
• Areas have been added, making it possible to construct more coherent courses.
• There is a new style of coursework making it more accessible easier to teach.
• While the study of British history is a major part, students will cover more than one country/state.
