A great @HabsHatcham open evening in the history department and a big thanks to our student helpers. Quotes of the evening from Rheedwan “you don’t know who Imre Nagy is?! Embarrassing!” and Enoch “best thing about history is you’re always in for a surprise.” #historyvibesonly

We’re really proud to offer students a free choice on their A Level coursework topic. Today this years @HHCSixthForm historians presented on their topics - topics as varied as Thomas Sankara, the Qing Dynasty, the Troubles, the 1973 coup in Chile and the fall of Apartheid

Our Y13 @HHCSixthForm historians were incredibly lucky today to take part in a source masterclass with the @BalfourProject that looked at the policies of, and resistance to, the British Mandate in Palestine 🧵

Students then split into groups to analyse a range of documents considering policy of and resistance to the British mandate in Palestine coming up with themes and issues.

An important and, at times, sombre class today from which Y13 took a huge amount; many left saying the sources will stay with them for some time.

Our very own Mr Choudhury’s mum in this seminal @channel4 documentary. #Defiance. Important British histories in teach in schools - we look forward to having her in school to talk more about the doc and her experiences #BritishAsianhistory #proudMrChoudhury #antiracism

“Did you have curry? I can smell it.” For a TEACHER to point that out to you tears you apart.”
This interview broke my heart, especially when she recalled feeling so proud of herself when she knew some of the questions and put her hand up - but she never got picked #Defiance

Well done to @HabsHatcham year 8 historians for their sophisticated interrogation of the curation of the Africa and Egypt galleries at the @britishmuseum and creating their own exhibitions after much debate! #choosehistory #hatchamhistorians
