History

KS3 History at La Mare is where students learn to enjoy and be therefore motivated to study the past. 
 

History also allows students to build up and develop their knowledge and understanding of historical events and peoples while also developing the skills which will see them have a greater understanding of the world in the past and how this has affected the present. Throughout this key stage there is a clear focus on developing skills in preparation for higher study at GCSE. This includes projects and investigations to encourage independent learning, structure and organisation of historical answers and the key language features required for success in History.

Furthermore to provide students with stimulating, engaging lessons to fuel their enjoyment and interest in History and to build on their knowledge base. Therefore in doing so we aim to maintain and develop our popularity at GCSE and in KS3, with staff and students who aspire to push themselves to achieve their best.
