Using interactive and engaging activities, we will explore whichever issues within the Britain, European and World, and Scottish topics you are focusing on. Each week, I always include quizzes on your chosen topics to assess your understanding at random points, and we start completing essay-style and past paper source questions from the get-go to ensure students are comfortable with the exam format. I have pre-made answer structures for each type of source question to simplify this part of the exam, and to ensure that students can pick up as many marks as possible. Having achieved 100% in both my National 5 and Higher History prelims and therefore obtaining the History award at my school, I know exactly how to get every mark available to students taking this exam. I also understand how to achieve a very good mark in the assignment which can give students a huge boost in terms of marks and confidence going into the final exam.

GCSE History is the study of key events, influential people, and significant changes that have shaped Britain and the wider world over time. It explores important historical periods, conflicts, political developments, and social change while helping students understand how the past has influenced the present. The course develops strong analytical and critical thinking skills by encouraging students to examine a range of historical sources, evaluate evidence, compare different interpretations, and construct well-supported, structured arguments. It also strengthens research, communication, and essay-writing skills, enabling students to present clear, balanced, and evidence-based conclusions.
