13 HISTORY - HĪTORI

Students will have the opportunity to conduct in-depth research into a historical event of their choice, engaging with primary and secondary material. The skills developed during the year will directly support tertiary study.

The topic of Year 13 History includes a study of Women's movements in the 19th and 20th centuries. Students will explore women's movements that took place in Great Britain, the United States, Australia and New Zealand. We will look at the ideologies that underpinned these movements, the role of different individuals and groups within them and the historical narratives and contested perspectives associated with them.

History is a University Approved subject. All Level 3 History standards contribute to UE Literacy (reading) and the external standards can contribute to UE Literacy (writing). Students taking Year 13 History can achieve University Entrance through their internal assessments.

Internal credits: 15           External credits: 4            Total: 19 credits

Please note: Depending on student numbers, there may be a combined Year 12 and 13 History class. If this is the case, both year levels will follow the Year 13 course outline.
