History at Saint George's

History at St George's is designed to help students to develop their historical skills. Own Learning in History for Years 7-8 is set over a half term based on one topic which complements their work in class. These topics can be accessed through this web-site.

Own Learning for Years 9 -13 is set by the individual teacher weekly and supports their classwork.

Own Learning Sheets can be accessed through the Files page.
