We allow students to go away and research facts for themselves to then make their own presentations, projects etc. Having an opportunity to be able to have their own opinions is very appealing to teenagers and they are encouraged to do so in History.
The skills used; such as researching, making judgements, analysing facts, debating etc, will enable our students to develop into active social people who can contribute successfully to society and move into many different employment opportunities where they will have the confidence to progress and become anything they want to be.
