History helps us understand the world, so that we can change it. It helps us understand how great change has happened in the past, the causes and the consequences of great events and people, and how we have got where we are today. Interpretation skills allow us to criticise films, books and historians and think for ourselves. 



It helps us recognise why the world is as it is, and how we can change it for the better.  Not only this, but History is one of the most prestigious and respected subjects at GCSE and A-Level with employers and universities.

 



As an academy, Feltham Community College has been able to tailor, develop and deliver a History curriculum that meets the needs of our learners and our community. We believe that our students deserve access to the best works of history, as well as equipping them with the depth, breadth and skills they need to be life-long historians; as well as active citizens who pursue social justice.
