History Revision Tips & Resources
History is full of facts, dates and consequences! It’s the amount of content that puts some people off, but the best way to revise history at both KS3 and GCSE is to chunk your revision into manageable pieces. Little and often is more effective than cramming the night before a test or an exam.
That's why we have our bespoke Knowledge Organisers (available to download below for each unit).
We also recommend using BBC Bitesize pages for some units of the GCSE. Remember to make sure that you are using the AQA specification pages, follow the links below to make sure you get it right. Sadly, the Conflict & Tension unit is not on BBC Bitesize but a revision website for it can be accessed here: Conflict & Tension: The First World War, 1894–1918 | AQA GCSE History
