Feltham History Department has a clear vision for our students. It is our vision to create active citizens who pursue social justice. We want to empower our students to help change their world and fight for what they believe in - we believe History has a unique emancipatory power due to its range of knowledge and cognitive skills.

 

We work with students to ensure that they not only study a wide overview of important and relevant historical topics, but also that they are equipped with the skills of a life-long historian. We therefore focus on developing students' skills of Enquiry, Interpretation and Significance.
