Our History Society continues to go from strength to strength as our Sixth Form students prepare for our History Symposium 2023! #StChrisSixth #StChrisHistory #StChrisSenior
Our fantastic Year 13 A-Level Historians today discussing the causes of the American Revolution via a ‘speed dating’ carousel, sharing and debating causal hierarchies! #StChrisSenior #StChrisSenior #StChrisSixth
#StChrisY12 getting a bit 'old school' - using a blackboard to explore Communist China's First Five Year Plan. Focus on breaking down 'success' into thr key aims of autarky, development of heavy industry and socialist development - great job Y12. #StChris6th @StChrisHistory

Allowing students to use windows like whiteboards. Simple way to get them up and about the classroom that fosters collaboration.

Bravo, Ryan! Loved my time as an EPQ supervisor. Such a valuable and useful qualification.
Ryan’s #EPQ artefact aimed to create a budgeting app that could teach financial literacy to teenagers. After hours of learning the required code, here it is play.google.com/store/apps/d… 👨‍💻 ✅ #StChrisBahrain #StChris6th
A brief fly through of one part of yesterday's TOK Exhibition by some of our @StChris6th formers. Congratulations to the Exhibitors - you were marvellous! #StChrisIB #TOKExhibition
