    Hi guys

    I hope this is the right place for it. I'm going to be doing History grinds from September onwards. As students which topics do you believe will be in contention for the Leaving Cert exams next summer? (all levels) I'm going through my notes and putting lesson plans together for my English students and am curious about the History curriculum.

    Thanking you

    A number of schools have openly available History revision pages on their school sites. They can be a great help.
