What the college says
AQA - In this ever changing world you are bombarded with information 24/7 from a vast range of sources. Never before has it been so important for you to be able to make intelligent judgements about just what it is you are being told to sort the facts from the ction, the prejudice from the lies, news from fake news. Having the condence to think, consider and reach your own informed judgements about what you are being told and express your views with confidence and conviction are THE vital skills, regardless of content, that we promote in A Level History as we explore Tudor England, the origins, development and conclusion of the Cold War and the rise and fall of British influence in Africa.
