GCSE History A: What adaptations are in place for Summer 2021?

Students taking GCSE (9-1) History A (Explaining the Modern World) in summer 2021 will not have to study the full course and will not be assessed on all the content: 

• All students must study and will be assessed on the Period study (International Relations).  
• Students will study and be assessed on two out of the three remaining studies: the Non-British Depth Study, the Thematic Study, and the British Depth Study and Study of a Historic Environment. Centres can choose which two of these studies they enter their students for.
