      Specification reminder for GCSE History B (J411) 22 November 2022

      We’d like to remind you to make sure you’re using the latest version of our specification for GCSE History B: Schools History Project (J411).

      You can view and download our amended specification (version 1.4, dated October 2022) from the GCSE History B qualification page. 

      In October 2022, we updated terminology in section 2c on the following pages:

      • On page 11, we amended the text to ‘other European migrants including Jews and Romany Gypsies’
      • On page 15, we amended the text to ‘attitudes of people in Britain towards the Empire’.

      If you have any queries about this update, please contact the History Subject Team on 01223 553998 or email history@ocr.org.uk.
