The Tudors: England 1485 – 1603 This option allows students to study in breadth issues of change, continuity, cause and consequence in this period through the following key questions: How effectively did the Tudors restore and develop the powers of the monarchy? In what ways and how effectively was England governed during this period? How did relations with foreign powers change and how was the succession secured? How did English society and economy change and with what effects? How far did intellectual and religious ideas change and with what effects? How important was the role of key individuals and groups and how were they affected by developments? Democracy and Nazism; Germany: 1918 – 1933 This option provides for a study in depth of a period of German history during which a newly developed democratic form of government gave way to a dictatorial Nazi regime. It explores political concepts such as ‘right’ and ‘left’, nationalism and liberalism as well as ideological concepts such as racialism, ant – Semitism and Social Darwinism. It also encourages reflection on how governments work and the problems of democratic states as well as consideration of what creates and sustains a dictatorship. Students often combine History with English, Geography and Politics. An A level in History reveals an ability to think, analyze and present information ‐ this is a valuable skill required for many occupations, including Law, Journalism and Politics.
