History

Our Pupils’ perspective

In History, we learn we about the good and bad things that have happened in the past and we now know how these things influence how we live today

 

Subject Leader

She is fascinated by how history has shaped the way we live today; legislation, rules and regulations all influenced by happenings years ago.
