True. And in the interests of fairness, I took a look at the Cambridge IGCSE History syllabus. Say Creepy and Lazy chose to "teach" Option B (International Relations since 1919)for the core study syllabus, these are the subjects they would have to cover as well as an "in depth" study
• Were the peace treaties of 1919–23 fair?
• To what extent was the League of Nations a success?
• Why had international peace collapsed by 1939?
• Who was to blame for the Cold War?
• How effectively did the United States contain the spread of Communism?
• How secure was the USSR’s control over Eastern Europe, 1948–c.1989?
• Why did events in the Gulf matter, c.1970–2000?
I also had a look at the English syllabus. These are the assessment objectives for AO3 Speaking in Cambridge IGCSE English
SL1 articulate experience and express what is thought, felt and imagined
SL2 present facts, ideas and opinions in a cohesive order which sustains the audience’s interest
SL3 communicate clearly and purposefully using fluent language
SL4 use register appropriate to context
SL5 listen and respond appropriately in conversation.
I'm not so invested in the English curriculum mainly because I am WAY too invested on hearing what Creepy and Lazy have to say about the Cold War. Hint: Since we all know you read here, C, L and Hi Steve, it has nothing to do with arguing about whether or not you have the heating switched on at home. You're welcome
Yeah, sorry, that was a vague swipe at irony. x
