Details

History thrives at Cape Cornwall School. Students develop excellent understanding of their local heritage and the area in which they live through regular, high-quality opportunities to study local history. They understand the importance and relevance of history with the result that take-up at Key Stage 4 is well above average. This case study describes four key components which underpin the subject’s success at the school.
