Had such a great day being nerdy with Y11, 12 and 13 in our lessons. Rewatched The History Boys this week which definitely had me channeling Mrs Lintott.

I'm Expert Subject Mentor for the local History trainees this year. I've compiled their priority areas for deepening their knowledge - can't wait to get stuck with these!

Just adored this one. Witty, absorbing and moving, with a particularly great storyline at the end of WW2.

Feel like this might be a golden age of History textbooks. So many brilliant ones out recently!
