Course Outline

For many students, Year 9 will be the first year in which they will be studying History as an explicit subject. As such, Year 9 History is structured in a way to provide a general introduction to the skills and concepts students will encounter at IGCSE. It also provides an overview of the history of the 19th and 20th centuries by studying local, national and international themes and topics. Topics for 2016/2017 include: The Hong Kong Story; Slavery and the Black Peoples of North America; The First World War; and the Changing Role of Women in the 20th century.
