The course is aimed at history subject leaders in primary schools, or anyone who is an aspiring subject leader. It will focus on Key Stage 1 and 2.

The education landscape continues to be in flux and pressures on teachers remain high; into this context come much-debated proposed changes to Ofsted inspection. This series will help subject leaders to gain clarity on the potential implications of the new Ofsted inspection toolkits on primary history. This will help develop your confidence to be ahead of the game in ensuring your knowledge of the proposed Ofsted toolkits and the timeline for implementation is up to speed and that your history provision is aligned.

This webinar series will enable you to:

• • Gain an understanding of the main areas of the new Ofsted inspection toolkit and the potential implications for primary history
• • Build knowledge and confidence in preparing your primary history curriculum for an inspection
