For those students studying Pearson Edexcel's GCSE History modules 'Weimar & Nazi Germany 1918-1939' and 'Superpower relations and the Cold War, 1941–91' Anglia is delighted to offer a selection of itineraries that have been endorsed by the examination board. These fully-guided tours will enhance the teaching and learning process for the related Pearson qualification.
Our 3-day fully-guided tour to Berlin begins in front of the Reichstag building where we explore the transition from Imperial Germany to Weimar Republic. Then with visits to sites such as the Sachsenhausen Memorial, the Memorial to the Murdered Members of the Reichstag, the Brandenburg Gate and the Bebelplatz, we will cover many of the themes included in key topics 1, 3 and 4 of this module. The second half of the 3-day tour includes key Cold War locations, such as the Cecilienhof Palace, the Allied Museum, Treptow Park Soviet Memorial and the Berlin Wall and Documentation Centre, where our guides will work with your students, exploring many of the themes covered in key topics 1 and 2 of the 'Superpower Relations and the Cold War' unit.
Our 5 and 6-day programmes both begin in Munich where we explore the rise of Hitler and look at the role of both the SA and SS. Then with visits to the Dachau Memorial and the city of Nuremberg, home of the Nazi Party Rallies, we then look at Nazi Control and Dictatorship (key topic 3) and Nazi control of culture (key topic 4.2). The tour culminates in Berlin where, in addition to much of the content included in the 3-day option, you will have a chance both to visit one of Berlin's Cold War Civil Defence Shelters and a Nuclear Bunker, as well as experiencing a tour of the former Stasi Remand Prison in Hohenschoenhausen.

This itinerary has been reviewed by the awarding body to confirm that it suitably enhances the teaching and learning process for the related Pearson qualification. A Pearson subject representative has attended the associated tour to ensure that its content meets the requirements of the qualification it is aimed at and to confirm that it is suitable for the intended audience of the qualification.
The review confirms that the itinerary and the tour support the content of this qualification and that the locations covered in each visit and the key outcomes to be delivered as part of each visit enrich the overall learning experience of the course or part of the course it is aimed at.
Endorsement does not cover the Tour Operator nor does it cover the suitability of the individual tour guide who delivers the itinerary on the day. The delivery of the tour and individual experience of the tour are not the responsibility of Pearson; participants are referred to the Tour Operator’s confirmation of booking for further information including pricing structures.
Endorsement of an itinerary and a tour does not cover any other resources produced by the Tour Operator to support the qualification or that will be used to deliver the tour. Whilst Pearson is satisfied that the itinerary and the tour itself are capable of enriching and supporting the achievement of the qualification, it is not essential for studying the qualification. The official specification is the only authoritative source in respect of the qualification content and should be used for definitive guidance to ensure that all learning objectives are fulfilled.
At Anglia we care about our customers, our staff, the places we visit, the stories we tell and the organisations we work with. These key principles define who we are and what we do. We believe they are also the reason why Anglia is the market leader in fully-guided history trips for UK schools. We work with you to design a bespoke tour which meets the specific needs of your school and which supports what you are teaching in class. We start by asking what you want your students to see and what you want them to experience then build the tour around these requirements. A tour which, as the testimonials on our website show, your students will find thought-provoking, engaging and enjoyable.
