Y7 World Religions have been revising their first term's work with a remote game of Connect Four. It pushed @MrAllsopHistory's Google Classroom skills to the limit, but it was good to hear the students playing together in small groups even though they are apart.

Y10 have been grappling with historical causation and the origins of the Second World War.

It’s funny when we talk about “interventions” in education, we often forget the best one is to simply teach better lessons. Instead of running around after kids with bits of paper, sit down with a curriculum map and fill in a few subject knowledge gaps for half an hour.

Have you ever wondered why people talk about 'crossing the Rubicon'? Here's Mr Allsop's explanation of the historical event behind the phrase.

It’s Humanities week, & this box has generated a lot of questions. @BSB_KS1 @britishschoolro @BSB_Humanities #questionformulationtechnique The intrigue is almost too much, & we will open the box tomorrow...

Year 7's @britishschoolro Humanities Day focused on book and internet research skills: relevance, reliability, and readability! This culminated in them putting what they learned to the test by answering questions on a topic they've never studied. #historyteacher #GeographyTeacher
