Welcome to the History Curriculum page

The Head of Faculty is Miss Broderick.

Our Aim: At the heart of the History curriculum is knowledge of Britain, the wider world and the inter-relationships between them. To allow pupils to make progress, by them knowing and remembering more. Pupils will develop a chronological understanding, whilst also developing an understanding that periods of History do not exist in isolation. Furthermore, pupils need to develop an understanding of; key events, key terms (Empire, Monarchy) and to be able to apply that knowledge to key concepts (cause and consequence, significance etc.) History influences the future and we want pupils to use this cultural capital to be able to succeed in life, and to make a well-rounded citizen, who can contribute to society.

The school’s work to promote pupils’ personal development is exceptional. (Ofsted, May 2025)
