History may not be compulsory, but the reorganisation of how it should be taught up to KS3 in a chronological order opens new potential all round, not only for the subjects we are used to promoting but also new historical periods.

Thanks for sending this out to everyone Liz. Sadly no compulsory history for 14-16 year olds.
Museums should especially note - no Victorians at KS2!! and hopefully the six wives could be finally put to rest as well ...

Dear All
The new draft documents for England has just been made available
As the DfE website states
On 7 February 2013, draft programmes of study for all National Curriculum subjects in Key Stages 1 to 3, and draft programmes of study for citizenship, computing and PE in Key Stage 4, were published for consultation.
It makes for very interesting reading ,,,,,,particularly at KS2 History...
Best wishes
