Supporting professional learning
History specific CPD is very important if individual teachers and departments are to thrive. The best history departments have a culture of always learning together. They are constantly discussing how children learn in history and they are always updating their subject knowledge. It can be a lot of fun to learn together and to take advantage of opportunities to ‘do history’ as a team. Despite the admin pressures that beset all schools, it is vital that most departmental meeting time is given over to subject specific CPD. In this section you will find helpful articles, guides, resources, and information about opportunities, to enable your department to undertake effective CPD.
