Enquiries
A key aspect of the role of the history coordinator is curriculum design, based around an enquiry approach, but developing effective enquiries that enable independent learning and questioning is not easy. Effective historical enquiry depends upon good subject knowledge, a good range of evidence and a question that provides an element of controversy or hypothesis. The role of the coordinator involves framing effective historical enquiries and equipping others with the tools to do the same. In this section you will find helpful articles and resources to help you take the lead in developing this important cornerstone of development in history.
