History is a vitally important subject, which offers insight into both the past and the future. At Les Voies, students study History to learn skills in order to make inferences; understand causation and consequences; assess the reliability of information and to understand and appreciate the global, local and recent history. 

 

At KS2 and KS3 students cover a variety of topics including:

​

• Prehistory 

• The Ancient World

• The Golden Age of Islam

• World War One and Two

• The Holocaust

 

At KS4 there are multiple pathways for qualification to ensure success, no matter a student's starting point. Within the Edexcel’s IGCSE History (4Hi1) qualification, students learn about topics including: The changing nature of warfare (1919-2011); Weimar and Nazi Germany; Superpower relations; The Cold War and The Vietnam Conflic.
