LEARNING
HISTORY IN SCHOOLS
History
is one of the most important academic pursuits of any child’s education. Here,
we outline the importance of learning history and reveal study tips for pupils.
We
all live in the present and we plan for the future – but how do we understand
where we’re going and what progress looks like? To know exactly where you’re
going, you first need to understand where you have come from. For that you need
an appreciation of history.
History
is one of the most respected and most valuable academic subjects your child
will learn, and one they will study throughout their learning career. History
is a cornerstone subject that we teach across all of our curricula, including
the British Curriculum, IB Curriculum, and IGCSE Curriculum.
This
guide takes a deep dive into the roles of history and why studying history is
important at school, plus a few tips for studying it effectively.
We
study history because history doesn’t stay behind us. Studying history helps us
understand how events in the past made things the way they are today. With
lessons from the past, we not only learn about ourselves and how we came to be,
but also develop the ability to avoid mistakes and create better paths for our
societies.
Events
in the past have displaced families and groups, changing the makeup of regions
and often causing tensions. Such events have also created government systems
that have lasted generations beyond when they started. And all of it affects
each person alive today.

To
study history is to study change: historians are experts in examining and
interpreting human identities and transformations of societies and
civilizations over time. They use a range of methods and analytical tools to
answer questions about the past and to reconstruct the diversity of past human
experience: how profoundly people have differed in their ideas, institutions,
and cultural practices; how widely their experiences have varied by time and
place, and the ways they have struggled while inhabiting a shared world.
Historians use a wide range of sources to weave individual lives and collective
actions into narratives that bring critical perspectives on both our past and
our present. Studying history helps us understand and grapple with complex
questions and dilemmas by examining how the past has shaped (and continues to
shape) global, national, and local relationships between societies and people.
I
believe that studying history helps us prevent problems in the future. History
is a subject that some people may find boring or irrelevant to their daily
lives. However, studying history is crucial for gaining a deeper understanding
of the world and how it functions. By examining past events and analyzing their
causes and effects, we can learn valuable lessons that can help us avoid
repeating the same mistakes in the future.

All
people and cultures are living histories. Our cultures, languages, traditions,
and religions are all inherited from the past. We even inherit our genetic
make-up from those that lived before us. Knowing these connections gives you a
basic understanding of the condition of being human.
