Quality Mark for History – Oxford Grove Primary School

Quality Mark for History

  •  

    Renewed – September 2023

    Oxford Grove has held the Quality Mark for History award since 2020.

    The History Quality Mark Gold is awarded to schools that demonstrate a relentless passion to ensure effective learning and achievement through inspiring teaching that engages all pupils consistently across the school. Oxford Grove has the systems and structures in place so History enjoys a high status, reputation and profile in the school and beyond.

    Examples of this include our home/school competitions to drive the enthusiasm for researching historical concepts further and the introduction of our ‘Oxford Grove Historians’ to explore our children’s curiosity and interest in the subject area.

    The Gold status recognises how our personalised History curriculum reflects the diversity of our school whilst carefully meeting the needs of all our children.

    To enrich the pupil’s experiences, History at Oxford Grove does not stop in the classroom as a systemic and coherent range of historical experiences is available to all pupils across the different years of the school.
