Studying History at BGS inspires students to become thoughtful, inquisitive historians. Through exploring a wide range of social, political, and religious changes across time, students develop a deep understanding of how the past shapes the world today. They examine key events and individuals from diverse societies, gaining an insight into multiple perspectives and interpretations.
Our curriculum builds confidence in analysing historical sources and forming well-supported arguments. We nurture ambition by encouraging students to think critically and creatively, preparing them for further study and beyond.
In History, challenges are embraced as opportunities for growth, helping students to build resilience and independence in their thinking.
Through examining key events and people from diverse societies, students learn to question evidence, challenge assumptions, and engage with different viewpoints. Such opportunities build empathy for people from the past, whilst at the same time developing a thorough understanding of how history shapes our reality today.
Being a historian at BGS means more than just learning facts — it’s about asking meaningful questions, understanding complex issues, and becoming an active, informed citizen.
