What the college says

History is a demanding and exciting subject. It is the study of the people and events that have shaped the modern world. You will become familiar with a range of source materials and evidence as well as how to interpret and write analytically. You will be given the opportunity to argue and debate issues in class and to get to grips with the lives of ordinary and extraordinary people. By the end of the course you will be able to weigh up evidence and communicate complex ideas effectively. The study of factors that shape these changes such as economic changes, social changes and political changes are themes which occur in the time periods studied.
