History Curriculum Intent |
||||||||||||||
The objective of the History department at Copley Academy is based on a belief in the importance of History, both as an academic discipline within the school curriculum, and as an important foundation stone for living a productive and successful life beyond compulsory education. The specific aims of the History department at Copley are threefold: 1. Firstly, students should view history as a fun and interesting subject. All teachers within the department love and value the study of the past, and we want students to match this passion, generating an interest in history that will remain with them for life. 2. Secondly, we wish to transmit knowledge and understanding of the past, both within the UK and the wider world. Students should have an understanding of how the world we live in has been shaped by the past and has an effect on the future. 3. Finally, it is our aim that students continuously develop life skills such as reading, thinking, evaluating, analysing, empathizing and communicating.
