What the college says

We live in an increasingly globalized world and events in a completely different region will impact upon our lives significantly. As world citizens we need to be informed and unprejudiced. History at Dane Court aims to provide students with a broad knowledge and understanding of events of the 20th century with a particular emphasis upon developments in Russia and China ? two superpowers that continue to have a major political and economic relevance. Students will have a fascinating opportunity to study very recent History that is, in many ways, still being written. We intend, by the end of the course, to have furnished students with a clear understanding of the origins and complexities of contemporary world politics within a wider framework. Students will be encouraged to think in a global context rather than seeing History from a solely Euro-centric viewpoint. They will be challenged to examine a variety of attitudes and perspectives to understand how cultural and geopolitical factors impact upon Historical enquiry. There is no need to have studied GCSE History, although this will obviously be of benefit. The most important quality you can bring to lessons is an open, enquiring mind.
