History

Curriculum Intent 

Our curriculum in history is broad and ambitious, embedding key skills and knowledge through a range of cultures and time periods. A good understanding of history allows us to understand the modern world and the complexities of events. We offer students the opportunity to study a range of cultures and to develop and enhance skills that can be can applied in other subjects and in future study. 

Our curriculum is carefully sequenced to allow students to gain a broad understanding of chronology of events, cause and consequence, significance and interpretation. Our students can make links between units and to other societies, cultures and world events.  

At KS3 and into KS4 students will develop a range of skills including asking questions, analysing information and being able to convey their opinions in structured ways.
