The SQA National Qualifications in History help to develop informed and active citizens by helping learners to gain a greater understanding of political and social institutions and processes. Students will develop skills which are transferable to other areas of study and which you will use in everyday life.

Our National 5 Study Guide for History - Scotland will help students to develop a greater understanding of the past in Scotland and learn about the reasons why particular historical events took place. The physical book is also fully supported by the BrightRED Digital Zone online with a wealth of extra material, tests and video links. 

The BrightRED Advanced Higher History Study Guide is currently the only study guide available for students taking this challenging course, and aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed. By studying this course, students will be able to engage in historical debate and gain a deeper appreciation of the forces that have shaped historical developments.
