All Humanities subjects allow pupils to immerse themselves in the diversity of other cultures, faiths and environments; from here in Lincolnshire to the wider British Isles and to far flung places across the globe. The Humanities department is a well-established and committed team of nine teaching professionals. Comprising of subject and non-subject specialists within those numbers. We are committed to supporting all members of the team, whatever stage of your teaching career you are at presently. This year we have two ITT students and an ECT. We have been training Humanities teachers constantly for the past eight years through our relationships with teacher training schools. Many of these staff members joined the department permanently and now form part of the team. We have six Humanities rooms across the school, which includes one central block comprising of three classrooms an office and intervention/meeting room. All rooms have Wi-Fi, Smart boards, and centrally stored ICT trollies. We are a well-resourced department with a wide range of textbooks and electronic resources to support students learning and our staff development. The team are dedicated to developing our shared vision to 'connect pupils to the real world'. We value educational experience and enrichment opportunities. Many students have limited cultural capital and it is our aim to ensure that all pupils leave us understanding more about the world. Through careful and strategic planning, involving all Humanities teachers, we ensure that the delivery of History, Geography and Religious Studies embraces the same cross - curricular model of enquiry and concepts we identify as our 'Golden Strands'. Students are taught a five-year History curriculum from KS3 to KS4, where they will develop their knowledge and understanding of both first and second order historical concepts.
