- Life under Nazi rule
- Germany’s reconstruction under Gustav Stresemann
For the Health and the People section:
- Treatments and surgical procedures through time
- Key individuals in the field
- Don’t forget to complete the 16-mark question assigned as homework for this section.
Paper 2 (1 hour) will take place in the classroom and will focus on the Conflict and Tension; The Interwar Years unit. To succeed in this examination, students should dedicate time to revise the following critical topics:
- The League of Nations

We appreciate your ongoing support and involvement in your child’s education. Your role in encouraging them to revise effectively, practise past papers, and seek help when needed is crucial to their success.
