The department aims to produce creative sceptical thinkers who are passionate about History.
The Curriculum
We aim to give students a broad understanding of the sweep of British History over the last 1000 years. Within that we look at key developments and changes, which have created the diversity experienced in the modern world and understand that change is one of the key features of life in the past and present.
The objectives of the department are:
  • To give students an understanding the diversity of the modern world though the events and peoples that shaped it.
  • To develop an analytical approach to sources of information and the interpretation of them.
  • To enable students to communicate effectively, given extended answers to complex questions.
  • To navigate chronologically.
  • To develop a lifelong love of History.
