Year 13 History
Year 13 History expands on many of the ideas introduced at Year 12, with an emphasis on encouraging students towards independent learning so that they are better prepared for university study. Pre-Treaty New Zealand History is covered as a precursor to first year Law, while our study of The First Crusade provides an interesting background to the current conflict in the Middle East. In Term 3 History students are able to select their own topic which they study independently with the guidance and support of their teacher. Recent graduates from History at HIBS have gone on to study a range of subjects such as Law, Politics, International Relations, Journalism, Economics or Commerce.
