After reading @richkbristol OBHD post @histassoc I thought I'd share the KS3 assessments we have implemented this yr.
- Y7-9 have 3 assts a yr
- 10 retrieval qu from content covered
- Interp qu, tick boxes then how far agree
- Source qu, tick content/prov then what can learn
This is bound to be another great conference!

I am so pleased with how our first unit in Year 7 introduces students to all of the principles in history that we think of as important. Big on historians, narratives, sources and forming their own judgements. 1/6
Highly recommend!
🚨The award-nominated @histassoc Subject Leader Development Programme is back!
💁Open to aspiring, new & in-post SLs
📢RTs & referrals to colleagues **much appreciated.**
📆Starts 12th September, so book soon!
Tomorrow marks a move for me out of the history classroom to help others succeed getting into the history classroom.
Very excited to be starting as a national Development Lead for History with @TeachFirst !
No idea how it works but bsky.app/profile/sehartsmith…
Hoping to find that old community feel once more.
What else do you use to help weigh down vinyl stick-on floor tiles to get them to stick other than history books?!

It’s the big 30. Managed to reach a bit of a milestone. @drmatthewgreen Shadowlands the #HTBC book we will be discussing on Sunday at 7pm.
Still an incredible album.
Thank you @MCRofficial for an album that’s accompanied me for those 20 years 🖤
