The Year 9 course is designed to put students in the perfect position to commence their GCSE studies in earnest and to foster a life-long love of the study of history.
There is a separate Parents’ Guide for each module of the course. Each Parents’ Guide contains everything that a parent should need to offer practical support to the student.
There are 17 lessons in the Year 9 course and seven tutor-marked assignments, including an end-of-year exam. The module titles, each with one assignment, are as follows:
- Module 1 Black America
- Module 2 The role of the individual
- Module 3 Divided Ireland
- Module 4 Hot war, cold war
- Module 5 How and why did the Holocaust happen?
- Module 6 Twentieth-century medicine

Prior learning required?
There are no specific prior learning requirements and no assumption that any particular historical knowledge has already been gained, although the Year 9 course builds on topics and skills that have been developed in the Year 7 and Year 8 courses. There are no final examinations and no formal assessment at KS3 level.
