ROUTE F: SEARCHING FOR RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY

INTRODUCTION

This document provides a sample scheme of work for Route F: Searching for rights and freedoms in the twentieth century that should be adapted by centres to fit their timetabling and staffing arrangements. It is meant as an example approach only and is not intended to be prescriptive.

For the purposes of this scheme of work, it has been assumed that the centre is teaching Paper 1 at the start of the course and then Paper 2. The scheme assumes 32 teaching weeks in each year to allow for time taken by other events. As Paper 3 is worth 30% of the A level (60% of AS) it has been allocated proportionally more of the teaching time, running from week 1 to halfway through week 19. Paper 2 – 20% of A level (40% of AS) – runs from week 19 to week 32. The separate Course planner document provides a range of examples of delivery options that can be used for planning alongside this document.

Paper 1 In search of the American Dream: the USA, 1917–96

Two possible approaches to delivering Paper 1 are given below. The first approach is thematic (page 3) and follows the order in which the content is set out in the specification. The second approach (page 11) has the content arranged mainly chronologically, with time at the end to revisit and consolidate the themes.

Paper 2

The schemes of work for the two Paper 2 options in this route then follow, so that centres can select the one they have chosen.

2F.1: India c1914–48: the road to independence: page 20

2F.2: South Africa, 1948–94: from apartheid state to ‘rainbow nation’: page 25

Suggested resources

The resources column suggests existing resources for these topics. A fuller list of resources is provided in the separate Route F topic booklet. As new resources for this specification are published, this scheme of work will be updated.

Paper 1: In search of the American Dream: the USA, 1917–96: Thematic approach

This approach works through the specification content theme by theme. The chronology is to some extent reinforced and repeated through the succeeding themes.
