During S4 pupils will study a range of different units including:

 

 

 

S4 Course

 

The course is based around 3 units: 

• SCOTTISH – The Era of the Great War, 1910–1928
• BRITISH – The Making of Modern Britain, 1880-1951

Pupils are assessed on their Knowledge and Understanding of the course content, and on skills of evaluation based on source evidence.

 

Pupils are required to complete an Added Value Unit at National 4 level. The Added Value Unit will involve learners selecting, researching and presenting findings on an issue of their choice, applying their knowledge and understanding.

 

Pupils are required to complete a Course Assessment at National 5 level. The Course Assessment consists of an Assignment and a Question Paper. Learners will research a topical issue and write up their findings.
