GCSE History Specification

CCEA are in the process of revising the GCSE History specification. As a body that represents history teachers in Northern Ireland, HTANI want to ensure that your opinions are fed into the revision process. The following questionnaire allows you to register your views on the current GCSE History syllabus and to suggest amendments for the revised specification. We will use your responses to present a case to CCEA.
