On Thursday 5th March, Higher History pupils attended an all-day revision conference in Paisley Town Hall. The aim of the conference was to provide advice on exam technique relating to essay writing and answering source-based questions. The speakers at the event included past and present chief examiners of history, and the author of a number of history course textbooks.

All pupils participated fully in the day’s events, and seemed to find the course useful.
