Why choose AQA for AS and A-level History
Helping students understand the significance of historical events
Our AS and A-level History qualifications have been designed to help students understand the significance of historical events, the role of individuals in history and the nature of change over time. Our qualifications will help them to gain a deeper understanding of the past through political, social, economic and cultural perspectives. The engaging topics available to them throughout the course will provide them with the knowledge and skills they require to succeed as AS and A-level historians.
Flexibility of choice
- We offer teachers and students the choice of British, European, American and World history
- We have retained as much of the flexibility of our current specification as possible.
Well-resourced and popular topics
- After careful consultation with teachers and Higher Education, we have kept our most popular topics so you can re-use or adapt your departmental resources. We have also developed some new topics in response to teachers’ feedback
- We have worked closely with a number of publishers to produce textbooks that link directly to the specifications.
Teach AS and A-level together
- Our AS not only provides a strong stand-alone qualification, it is also fully co-teachable with the A-level
- Content for the AS and the first year of the A-level is identical
- The skills required for AS questions are closely linked to those in A-level questions
- We clearly articulate the skills and techniques that we expect students to display at AS and A-level as well as producing clear question papers and mark schemes
We’re confident that you will enjoy teaching the AQA specifications and that your students will be able to show what they know, understand and can do, mastering the craft of the A-level historian.
