What the college says

Choosing Advanced Level History offers students the opportunity to explore what is going on around them and in the wider world through the lens of the past. It is an opportunity to see things as they really are and to understand why our society and the world as a whole behaves in the way it does. Advanced Level History is an exploration of human nature and of what is right, what is wrong and ultimately what is going to happen when human nature is put to the test.

What you need to get on

Candidates require grade 6 and above in History and grade 6 in English Language at GCSE. For those students who have not studied History at GCSE but who wish to study it at Advanced Level, students will require a grade 7 in a Humanities subject (e.g. Religious Studies, Sociology, or Geography).

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?

Approved for 16 to 18 study on the government's Section 96 list.
