Struggling to make your GCSE History revision stick? Say hello to the internet’s weirdest study hack: the “Can You Recall the Class of...?” classroom. This will be perfect for students revising Edexcel, AQA, or OCR GCSE History units.


What’s this GCSE History Game About?

Set up like a class photo, this game features famous (and infamous) historical figures from key GCSE History topics such as:

  • Weimar and Nazi Germany

  • Elizabethan England

  • Crime and Punishment through Time

  • Early Elizabethan Society

Each figure is numbered and aligned with an icon representing a major exam topic. Your job? Match each face with the right name, event, or reform they’re known for.


Our Exercises

  1. Identify the Historical Figures: Test your knowledge of leaders, rebels, reformers, and revolutionaries. Can you spot Adolf Hitler, Elizabeth I, or Robert Peel?

  2. Answer the Thematic Questions: Under the image, you'll find questions linked to each figure—like “Define the term Dolchstoss” or “Give two ways the Nazis delivered propaganda.” These match the exam command words used in the GCSE History papers and will be great practice for you.


So, next time you’re stuck on your GCSE History flashcards, just ask yourself: Can you recall the class of...?
