Getting to grips with GCSE History At GLA Tutors, we are dedicated to helping students excel in their GCSE History examinations. Our experienced tutors are passionate about history and committed to providing comprehensive support aligned with the AQA examination board's specification.  Let's explore the breakdown of the AQA GCSE History specification: Paper 1: Understanding the Modern World This paper focuses on key historical events and developments from the 20th century. Our tutors will guide students through topics such as the origins of World War I, the Treaty of Versailles, the rise of Hitler and the Nazis, the Cold War, and the civil rights movement. We provide in-depth analysis, engaging discussions, and access to a wide range of historical sources to help students develop a deep understanding of these crucial events. Paper 2: Shaping the Nation In this paper, students will explore the history of Britain from medieval times to the present day. Our tutors will delve into topics such as the Norman Conquest, the Tudors, the Industrial Revolution, the British Empire, and the impact of immigration. We provide comprehensive guidance on key historical figures, significant events, and the social, political, and economic changes that shaped the nation. Through interactive lessons and engaging activities, we help students develop a strong grasp of British history. Historical Investigation This component allows students to conduct an in-depth investigation on a topic of their choice. Our tutors will provide guidance on selecting a suitable topic, conducting research, analysing sources, and presenting findings. We help students develop critical thinking skills, research methodology, and the ability to construct coherent and well-supported arguments. This component allows students to develop their historical research skills while exploring a topic of personal interest. At GLA Tutors, we foster a supportive and inclusive learning environment, where students can explore and deepen their understanding of history. Our tutors provide personalised one-on-one sessions, group discussions, and access to a range of learning resources to cater to each student's unique needs. Beyond the specification, we encourage critical thinking, historical empathy, and the ability to analyse and interpret historical sources. We also focus on developing strong exam techniques, essay writing skills, and effective revision strategies to maximise exam success.

Historical Association webinar series: History and literacy: better together Presenter: Andrew Wrenn This practical webinar will explore the different ways stories and storytelling can be used in primary history: as an evocative way of conveying substantive knowledge for retrieval, and as a stimulus to hook pupils’ initial interest and curiosity. It will also show how pupils can be helped to test the reliability of stories as historical interpretations, by comparing them with the original evidence on which they are based.

Historical Association webinar series: Making history accessible Presenters: Cat Priggs This webinar will provide an overview of recent key developments in SEND, including statutory guidance and regulations from Ofsted’s latest Education Inspection Framework and the SEND improvement plan. Drawing on SEND toolkits, we will reflect on how to embed inclusive practice. This will be explored in the context of the history classroom as we draw upon the Historical Association’s Secondary Committee ‘Making History Accessible’ resources to consider how to develop and support SEND students’ historical learning. At the end of this session, participants will be introduced to an optional small-scale action research project. This project will prompt reflection on a specific aspect of participants’ practice, which will be explored and reviewed through the webinar series.
