What the college says

This is ideal for those who would like to build on their GCSE course with further study of the recent past. We explore the recent history of the world's major powers, allowing students to deepen their understanding of why Britain and the world are as they are today. We study political, social and economic changes in 20th century Britain, including the role of major leaders such as Churchill and Thatcher. We also study the relationship between the world's major powers in the 20th century, including the causes of each of the World Wars, and explore themes in the causes, conduct and consequences of warfare, including leadership, technology and communication, in the 19th and 20th centuries. Students write a personal study on a related topic of their choice.
