History Society is an opportunity to explore, discuss and debate any and every aspect of History that ignites your interest! Often based around a monthly topic or theme (Greatest Scandals, Badly Behaved Women, Biggest Controversies, Art History or Debates around the Atomic Bombs or Cancel Culture, just to name a few!), you can come and enlighten us on an area of history that excites you, or simply come along to enjoy learning about something new that you may have never even heard about before! It can be as weird or niche as you like, History Society is a space for those who want to enjoy the endless possibilities of discussion and investigation that the endless, fascinating and often unbelievable subject of History presents!

My experience at Wyke has been an overwhelming success. I thought that moving from a small school to a larger college would be a daunting experience yet it wasn’t at all. Everyone is so friendly and approachable. Flyers has provided me with so many useful skills and experiences which I will never forget.

The independence and opportunity to meet new people was why I chose to study my A Levels at the College. I enjoyed being able to complete an EPQ as it allowed me to research and write about a topic I found interesting.

I knew Wyke was the College I wanted to study at because I felt it had a much more mature and relaxed environment than other colleges. I knew I wanted to study Human, Social and Political Sciences at university and my teachers and Flyers mentor offered me additional support sessions to further develop my knowledge in these areas.

I was attracted to studying at Wyke because it offered me with many opportunities that would allow me to progress into Higher Education. Being a Flyer I have gained invaluable skills, experiences and support with my personal statement for university.
