Seeing an interesting/partially worrying trend with Year 9 taking History as an options subject this year. Interested to see if this is reflected nationally?

We’re on the writing lesson of our 17th century enquiry ‘How much did Samuel Pepys’ world really change?’ Today we were crafting concluding sentences and I asked for a volunteer to add an appositive after Pepys name. A student puts their hand up: ‘What about “Samuel Pepys, a historians dream”’😂

One thing I love about September, I just being in the classroom teaching bloody good lessons! I just want to bottle up the expectant energy & initial enthusiasm that a new term brings!
