Head of History

Why study History? By unlocking the past you can unlock the present – and perhaps even the future.

What's a typical History lesson like? In a History lesson, students might find themselves designing a board game, or debating the causes of World War II ... or trying to work out (murder mystery style) who killed Mark!

What makes for a great lesson? Fun. Mystery. Challenge.

What's the best thing about teaching at Leckford Place? The fact that students are so keen to take part in lessons.
