Likely to be welfare reforms I think. Sadly that is :frown: its the worst of the 3!
Welfare and women, not the home front I think.

does the woman section include their contribute to the war and why they got the vote in 1918? As the questions on the specification were after some home front questions?

Strange, my History teacher said he was very confident Votes for women would come up, but now that I look at the previous years I don't see why that is, Liberal Reforms could just as easily come up.

Still, I'm pretty confident with this, I think a pretty average knowledge of this section and good source interpretation skills are all you need- most of the information needed for answers is already in the sources. Of course the more contextual knowledge you have, the better.

Not sure, it's very unlikely to come up, but it's still a very big risk to assume it won't. I'd just read through it in a revision guide and make some quick notes.

Hey everybody, just thought I'd mention that my teacher predicts it'll be women because this year marks the 100 year anniversary of Emily Dawson's death, its only a hunch but sounds pretty logical to me :smile:

I think we can risk not revising recruitment (i think that's what came up in jan2013. Does anyone have access to this paper?) but I'd revise gov propaganda and British and German reaction to peace settlements.

Nope sorry.
Do we have to know that? I didn't think we did Germany in this paper

^ Some people do Germany for OCR I heard. Anyways, I'm stressing so much cause it seems impossible to answer these questions to a high standard and considering I have a biology exam the same day, I'm stressing like ****!

Read the key questions. THe last one is:
What was the attitude of the British people at the end of the war towards Germany and theParis Peace Conference?

But yeah, basically I'd revise everything except recruitment. But we did recruitment for our mocks so I do know it fairly well.
Hi, for the British Depth Study (Paper 2) (1890-1918) the specification reads 'The effectiveness of the different tactics and the reactions of the authorities including Lloyd George and Asquith' (to the votes for women campaign)

I know Lloyd George supported the vote, but I can't find his reaction to their campaign anywhere!

Please help, Thanks :smile:

I've PM you with the answer. But, for everyone else, you don't really need to know this as it isn't in the official revision guide. But, generally, Lloyd George was in favour of women getting the vote but he was against the actions of the suffragettes.
