Welcome to the History Department:
The History department at Shene School is evolving into one of the strongest departments in the school. History is the most popular option at GCSE level at Key Stage 4 with four groups in Year 10 and four in Year 11. This is clearly a vote of confidence from pupils who value and enjoy their historical experience at Shene School. The department organises many extra curricula trips. This enables pupils to appreciate history outside the classroom and allows pupils and staff to bond and improve relations.
