Core Catch-Up for History Subject LeadersTraining

Facilitated by Andy Bull, this is the second of three sessions designed for History Subject Leaders who may not have accessed RoSIS content previously, or, those who would appreciate a 'catch-up'.  This session will focus on practical approaches to teaching historical interpretations in a meaningful but accessible way in the primary classroom.

Teaching historical interpretations can be seen as complex and challenging, but is a key part of the primary history curriculum and can be made accessible and enjoyable for pupils.

Links will be made to current research and to frameworks including the National Curriculum and Ofsted.  As outcomes of the session, subject leaders will know and understand:

• What historians mean by ‘interpretations’ and what different types there are
• How and where to locate interpretations in curriculum and lesson design
• What progress in pupils’ skills and understanding looks like and how to measure this

The session will include practical ideas and resources for teaching to take away and adapt and bookings can be made via Core Catch-Up: History | Forge CPD. This training is free if you have subscribed to the Learn Sheffield or RoSIS subscription offers. For non-subscribing schools/academies the cost will be £95 per person.
