Humanities – social understanding
Through humanities, we discover more about ourselves, our place in the world and our effect on the planet. We see how events of the past have shaped our thinking and explore the ways in which different communities cope with rapid change as they plan for the future.
Our approach
- We connect humanities with art, design, music and drama - unlocking creative ways to explore the subjects
- From Geography at the coast to experiencing a Victorian classroom - we bring topics to life
- Thinking skills are integral to lessons - we question, discuss and debate - to gain a deeper understanding of the world in which we live.
"We liked looking at the primary sources, for example the gravestones, because we could actually use them to gather information about the families living in the village."
