SOME SPECIFIC ISSUES
STRUCTURE OF THIS SESSION
DEPTH STUDY FROM 2015
LEARNERS ARE EXPECTED TO STUDY A COHERENT ELEMENT OF HISTORY IN GREATER DEPTH
LEARNERS ARE REQUIRED TO STUDY A COMPLETE TOPIC OVER AN EXTENDED TIME SCALE
THE DEPTH STUDY IS DIVIDED UP INTO TWO UNITS:
DEPTH STUDY I, ( UNIT 2) IS STUDIED IN YEAR 12 AND COMPRISES THE FIRST HALF OF A COMPLETE DEPTH STUDY.
DEPTH STUDY 2, (UNIT 4) IS STUDIED IN YEAR 13
DEPTH STUDY FROM 2015
SIMILARITIES
• The Depth Study remains primarily focused on primary sources and interpretations
• Learners are encouraged to use a wide range of different types of historical evidence
• There remains an emphasis on analysing and evaluating a range of contemporary sources in context
• Learners are expected to understand how and why different historical interpretations are formed
• Learners are still required to answer open ended essay type questions
DIFFERENCES
• The Depth Study has a new format but with NEW BUT FAMILIAR assessment techniques
• The content of The Depth Study has been increased in most cases
• Depth Study Part 1 focuses on assessment objectives AO2 and AO3
• Depth Study Part 2 focuses on assessment objectives AO1 and AO2

DEPTH STUDY FROM 2015
THE WORKLOAD
WE HAVE EXTENDED THE CONTENT OF MOST OF THE CURRENT OPTIONS IN ORDER TO SATISFY THE DEMAND FOR A TOUGHER AND MORE CHALLENGING COURSE.
THE ENTIRE COURSE NEEDS TO BE TAUGHT AS THE SOURCE BASED QUESTIONS ARE COMPULSORY AND THERE WILL ONLY BE A CHOICE IN SECTION B OF UNIT 4
SIMILARITY AND DIFFERENCE
DEPTH STUDY FROM 2015
THE WORKLOAD
THE FOCUS OF STUDY IN THIS UNIT IS ON A SHORTER AND COHERENT ELEMENT OF HISTORY IN GREATER DEPTH.
WE HAVE ATTEMPTED TO PROVIDE EXTRA AND MORE DETAILED GUIDANCE ON THE CONTENT TO BE TAUGHT.
WE HAVE ATTEMPTED TO STRUCTURE EACH DEPTH STUDY SO THAT IT CAN BE COMPLETED IN FOUR HALF TERMS OF STUDY.
SIMILARITY AND DIFFERENCE

THE CONTENT OF THE UNIT
The content of each unit is set out around CONCEPTS / PERSPECTIVES to make it manageable and to provide some structure for Centres
Each has a number of content sub-sections with a clear historical focus
There are also a number of areas of historical debate identified. Centres should focus on these areas of debate when teaching this unit.
Each MUST be studied – there are no alternative routes through the specification.

ASSESSMENT OF UNIT 2 There are two compulsory questions:
Question 1 requires learners to analyse and evaluate three complex contemporary sources in the context of a specific issue from within the Depth Study[AO2]
Question 2 requires learners to analyse and evaluate different ways in which aspects of the past have been interpreted by considering two different extracts from historians on a specific issue [A03]
The assessment structure shows clear progression from GCSE and is set at the standard expected at the end of the first year of an A level course
