What the college says
History has been a popular A Level choice at Queen Mary’s for many years. Many of our pupils have gone on to read the subject at University. Many other students opt to combine History with a variety of other A levels options, realising its intrinsic value and high academic regard, as well as its role as a subject, which fits in well with a wide variety of alternative Degree courses, and future career options – whether this be the Law, PPE, Politics, business, teaching, management and administration. The teaching staff within the Department are all highly experienced, competent and enthusiastic tutors, and experts in their subject. We’ve served as markers and examiners for a wide variety of Examination Boards. This has guaranteed a long tradition of academic success at A Level and university entrance, including Oxbridge entry.
