The discipline of History consists of three aspects – its content, its organising principles, and its methods of enquiry. The CAPE® History Syllabus seeks to promote these aspects of the historian’s craft and has been organised accordingly. Its content emphasises the historical experiences and relationships of the peoples of the Caribbean and the Atlantic World.
The selection, structure and content of themes and modules have been informed by a desire to promote an understanding of the historical as well as the contemporary relationships among the nations and societies of the Atlantic World and other regions. The syllabus is arranged into two Units, each made up of three Modules. The objectives of the Units and Modules are designed to enable students to develop identity and respect for cultural heritage, the skills of a historian, and use historical knowledge to understand and explain contemporary issues.
