University entrants
History is regarded as a serious academic A level by top universities. They know that a high grade can only be achieved through hard work and understanding. Every year a number of Perse A level historians choose to read History for their degree. Many Perse historians have gone to Oxbridge and to other universities which have a high reputation for the subject. Seminars for the UCAS historians prepare candidates for university entrance procedures.
Competitions
In recent years a Perse historian was a national finalist in the Historical Association’s “Great Debate” and another won the prestigious Julia Wood Essay Prize.
