• The ability to consistently support, evaluate and challenge their own and others’ views using detailed, appropriate and accurate historical evidence derived from a range of sources
• The ability to think, reflect, debate, discuss and evaluate the past, formulating and refining questions and lines of enquiry
• A passion for history and an enthusiastic engagement in learning, which develops their sense of curiosity about the past and their understanding of how and why people interpret the past in different ways
• A respect for historical evidence and the ability to make robust and critical use of it to support their explanations and judgments
• A desire to embrace challenging activities, including opportunities to undertake high-quality research across a range of history topics
