HistoryThe History Department at All Hallows aims to provide students not only with a broad and diverse knowledge of the past but also give them the right tools with which to uncover the different narratives of history and to critically examine these.
Our Key Stage 3 curriculum will be centred on the following four main historical concepts to help frame students’ understanding of the past: • Social • Political • Religious • Economic It is important that students also develop an appreciation of key developments over time and the cause and consequence of these. Alongside this, our students will consider elements of change, continuity, similarity and difference to assess the significance of events and how these events in the past have shaped the present. We also aim to help students understand their own context, and so where appropriate, we will explore local people and events alongside national and global history. At the end of their time at All Hallows, we hope that students are curious about the past, that they can engage in current historical debates, and that they can critically question historical sources and interpretations. Above all, we want our students to develop a life-long love of history. Extra-curricular opportunities In Year 7, students take part in themed workshops where they develop and deepen their knowledge and understanding of the medieval period. In Year 8, to enhance the taught module on witches, students have the opportunity to take part in a mock ‘witchcraft trial.’ To broaden their knowledge and understanding of the events of World War I and to commemorate and pay their respects to the fallen, students in Year 9 have the opportunity to visit the battlefields and cemeteries of the Western Front of WWI. |
