Purpose of study Through exploration of the Humanities subjects (History, Geography & Religious Studies) our students are taught how to think critically and creatively, to reason, to ask questions, to understand, to assess and interpret evidence. These skills allow our students to deepen their knowledge & understanding whilst developing an understanding of the environment, people, religion, cultures & events both past & present and how they shape the world we live in today.Aims We want our students to become resilient, independent, learners & critical thinkers by displaying a thirst for knowledge and understanding whilst developing skills that will enable them to communicate in an articulate and respectful manner culminating in them becoming positive Muslim role models who contribute effectively to society through a love of learning, understanding & sincerity. : Be tolerant & understanding towards others : Analyse & Evaluate the evidence presented : Confidently provide developed reasons for answers supported by evidence : Understand the importance & Influence Britain has had on the world through various contributions : An awareness & understanding of the Muslim contributions to Britain & the world. : Understanding of our Heritage : Respectfully debate to develop communication skills & challenge misconceptions. : Provide strong learning foundations that students will be able to use as a platform during the next phase of their life/learning journey. History History plays an integral part of our everyday lives and students will be taught the skills & knowledge in an enjoyable and engaging manner for each subject area covering a wide range of topics. Students study a wide range of British, European & World History topics & key events that have helped shaped the world we live in. Students are encouraged to engage in high quality debates and develop skills that provide them with the foundations which they will frequently use through their education and working lives.
