The History department at St Edmund’s aims to promote a fascination with the past, and a sense that History is a meaningful and vital intellectual pursuit, treating knowledge of history as a discipline. With a rich knowledge-based curriculum, pupils will engage meaningfully with the past and secure a chronological overview of major developments and periods to help contextualise new knowledge. Our aim is to empower students to know and remember more about events in combination with the methods and processes of historians. It is through History that we learn how to understand the world around us.
