Change the history that pupils learn at Key Stage 3. Reframe familiar topics, discover forgotten stories and amplify unheard voices.
Through an evocative, story-based approach, this ground-breaking course brings together historical scholarship and enquiry, presenting a truly diverse, inclusive and ambitious history curriculum.
This is the history we owe to our pupils. This is the past for today and tomorrow.
> Establish a strong foundation of British history. A clear, chronological spine underpins each book, empowering pupils with the knowledge they need to understand, question or disrupt national narratives.
> Journey far beyond Britain. Move between local and global, between small details and wider developments, as the books blend depth and overview, expanding pupils' knowledge of people, places and events around the world and the links between them.
> Use the power of story to transform your teaching. Captivated by vivid, intriguing narratives, pupils will remember more than they ever have before. See their literacy improve as they encounter a wide vocabulary in context, become immersed in rich, quality texts, and enjoy hearing the book read aloud or reading it themselves.
> Teach a diverse curriculum with confidence. Gender, class, race and religion are treated with sensitivity and sophistication, intrinsically woven into the content to create perspective on social, economic, religious and political history.
> Stay up to date with historical scholarship. The authors have undertaken extensive reading, so every chapter is informed by current research from historians such as Helen Castor, Ruby Lal and Toby Green.
> Deliver the aspirational curriculum that Ofsted expects. The course embodies the requirements for scope, coherence, rigour and sequencing. The Changing Histories curriculum is a progression model. Skills and knowledge are built systematically across each lesson sequence and new material makes sense to pupils because of the content covered earlier.
> Trust a meticulously planned approach. Each 'enquiry' chapter helps pupils to shape an extended answer to the overarching question, with carefully paced 'steps' that support pupils in processing substantive knowledge. Shorter 'story summary' chapters keep narratives moving in between the enquiries.
> Benefit from some of the best minds in history education. Leaders in history curriculum, practice, research and debate, the authors have poured their expertise into every page, making quality history accessible to all.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
The Changing Histories series is a brilliant resource to support great History teaching. The focus on stories and vivid descriptions of period and place create memorable moments for students that really support historical understanding and, what's more, a love, interest and curiosity about the past. The content is both diverse and comprehensive, ranging from stories about Medieval Africa and Norman Sicily to learning about traditional topics like the Black Death and Elizabeth I in a unique and innovative way. The inclusion of historians who help to shape the narrative, and their appearance in not only the books but also the accompanying Boost digital resources, helps students to really engage with proper and relevant historical scholarship. This new storytelling-centred curriculum will be fantastic for engaging students and encouraging them to continue their study of History at GCSE and beyond. Changing Histories is, quite simply, a must-have resource for all History teachers. -- Pete Jackson, Head of History, Ryedale School, North Yorkshire This series is a must have for all History departments. The story approach is a power tool in the History teacher toolkit. These accessible and inclusive stories build drama, suspense and transport pupils back to the time and place being studied. The images and carefully designed pages work fantastically well with the text, helping to build an immersive world for pupils to study and enjoy. -- Colin McCormick, Lecturer in Secondary History Education, Edge Hill University Changing Histories offers a refreshing take on History education, combining storytelling with rigorous scholarship to create a compelling learning experience. This series is sure to captivate students' imaginations and inspire a lifelong passion for History. Highly recommended for educators seeking to bring the past to life in their classrooms, making learning accessible to all, regardless of their ability. -- Katie Amery, Trust Director of History, Co-op Academies The Changing Histories series is beautifully crafted, weaving a diverse quilt of stories to captivate KS3 students with impeccable historical scholarship. I was drawn by the huge range of stories contained here, from Chenggis Khan's anda oath with his childhood friend, to Martin Luther's first angry responses to the Catholic Church. The easy, accessible style of writing means that all students can engage with the series and with history, whatever their level. The additional Boost package is so impressive; there is such a wealth of teacher resources here from podcasts to curriculum plans, to guidelines for how the series meets Ofsted requirements. Changing Histories will be invaluable for any school - I cannot wait for my department to start using it. -- Perrie Dunnett, Royal Hospital School Literacy is one of our big Ofsted targets and the focus on stories and reading rich text in Changing Histories will help us to make real progress in this area. I'm equally impressed with the accompanying Boost digital teaching and learning resources. Packed full of resources including videos of historians discussing topics in the book and planning and teaching videos with the textbook authors, Boost offers fantastic value for money. -- Sam Slater, Head of History, The Victory Academy History teachers have long understood the power that stories have to illuminate the past for students. The stories in this book provide precise narrative shape and carefully calibrated detail. This is an inspiring resource and I can't wait to start using it! -- David Hibbert, Cherwell School
