Republic and Empire: Breakdown of the Late Republic 88–31BC A Level Ancient History revision notes
This resource is a pretty comprehensive summary of all the knowledge required for OCR A Level Ancient History Republic and Empire: Breakdown of the Late Republic unit (H407/21):
The form of the Constitution
The challenges to the Constitution
The means by which politicians achieved success and their importance in the breakdown of the Republic
Social and Economic relationships and their importance in the breakdown of the Republic
The roles and importance of individuals in the breakdown of the Republic
At 20,000 words over 30 pages, this resource goes into detail about every topic on the specification, and explains how each topic is relevant and specific to the time period in question.
These were really useful for my students for a number of reasons. For my top students who were anxious that they had covered every corner of the course, these provided much needed reassurance. For my students whose attendance was a little sporadic, these notes allowed them to easily fill gaps in their knowledge. For the lessons close to exam time where students were keen to be ‘spoon fed’ the key knowledge, these notes came in incredibly handy.
They are detailed and can really be used as you see fit with your students according to their needs and your context. They also provide a pretty helpful teacher guide to refer to as you teach, as they helped me as I planned my lessons to make sure I was covering all the necessary key content as I progressed through the year.
Thanks for taking a look and hopefully these notes provide your students with the help they need and help you you save some much needed time and stress in the run up to exams, or over the course of the year :)
