History

Welcome to History A-Level

Overview

There are 3 units which make up the A-Level course, consisting of British, non-British and thematic studies.  In addition, students will be expected to complete an assessed topic-based essay of 3000-4000 words.

To study History at Dene Magna, students must be committed to engaging in further reading outside the classroom to establish their own opinions about all the topics studied. This will aid lively classroom debates and develop the deeper analytical thinking which is required at this level.
