Why study GCSE History?
• History is recognised as a strong academic subject
and as such elicits a high degree of respect from
university admissions tutors.
• The skills gained are extremely transferable, and
are acknowledged to be of value in a wide range
of studies and professions.
• The GCSE forms an appropriate basis for those
continuing with History at A level and beyond;
such students often go into business,
accountancy, the Law, teaching and a wide range
of other careers.
