The History Department is delighted to announce that three pupils in Year 11 have been awarded prizes for their work at GCSE.

Sophie A, Jodi-Faye H, Mia S will each receive a copy of Edward VI: The Lost King of England by by Chris Skidmore.

Mrs Curtin, Joint Head of History, writes:

‘The prizes are for the enthusiasm and commitment that these students have shown throughout their GCSE History course. They have a passion for the subject that shines through in lessons and they are also talented historians who have achieved excellent academic success in a number of papers. They are keen to redraft and perfect their exam answers-constantly striving to achieve higher marks; this is to be highly commended and a key to success. 

Their passion is illustrated by their desire to read outside of the course and we enjoy discussing all things history-related with them in the office.
