Entries listed for November 2026, June 2027; options and centre rules vary

The 2026/2027 International GCSE entry manual, physical pages 3, 23, was visually checked for these award, unit, option and series records. This does not establish individual eligibility or completed teaching.

StudyForA coverage: Planned

Original teaching and guided, independent and application practice have not yet been mapped for this entry. Official links below are resources, not completed StudyForA lessons.

Specialist review is pending. Self-check answers are learning support, not official exam marks or proof of mastery. Practical, oral, performance and coursework requirements, where applicable, need appropriate teacher or centre supervision and assessment.

Which contributing units run in each series?

An available award cash-in does not mean all its units are offered in that series.

  • 4WHI1 · History Unit 1

    Listed unit series: November 2026; June 2027.

  • 4WHI2 · History Unit 2

    Listed unit series: November 2026; June 2027.

  • Required units and a separate cash-in entry are needed for the award. Units may be banked under the candidate UCI across series, subject to current aggregation and resit rules. A cash-in alone does not enter the contributing units.
  • Regional and regional-onscreen options in this manual are listed for June 2027 only. Follow the centre-location rules on manual page 3; several subject tables mistakenly cross-refer to page 2. Confirm the required entry with the centre.
  • Onscreen or mixed paper/onscreen choices require suitable approved centre provision. C or CR in a paper title is not necessarily the entry-option code; use the exact option shown below.
  • This modular route is for international centres only. Linear and modular papers, units and cash-ins are separate routes.
  • Choose the required depth, investigation and breadth studies from the specification. The checked specification states no forbidden combinations; an entry code is not a completed topic teaching map.
  • This is award and entry reconciliation only. Original teaching, guided, independent and application practice, book mapping, specialist approval and formal assessment validation remain incomplete.
