Beckfoot Trust is an organisation that links a group of local Bradford schools together so that they can collectively improve the life chances for young people within their schools. Our aim is to create a group of truly remarkable schools each with a genuine comprehensive intake. They will be wonderful places for young people to learn and grow up in. We want to make a difference. We want to create something special.
Curriculum
The intent of History at Beckfoot is to provide students with understanding of the world and their place in it, with a firm grasp of how events in the past have shaped modern societies. We will also instil empathy, an appreciation of diversity and how our values today reflect the past. A Beckfoot historian will show a love of the past and be passionate about debating historical concepts.
