What the college says

IB History at Hartsdown equips students with lifelong learning into the past applied to the present and crucial skills to apply to all areas of work. For this to happen, History at Hartsdown delves deeper into rights and protest, exploring diversity around the world such as Asia, Africa and America – to truly understand where we lie in the world. It will offer opportunities to create investigations, embed empathy and develop the reasons behind why things happen and the impact it has had such as the Cold War, the rise of dictators and rights of people around the world. Beyond the factual and conceptual knowledge, History at Hartsdown gives pupils the foundations by which all of their subjects are built on, without such foundations, students would struggle to access the real world effectively.
