Local History Study KS3

Local History Study KS3 is a five-mission history activity book mapped to the DfE National Curriculum requirement for a local history study at Key Stage 3 (Year 9). It is skills-focused so any pupil can apply it to their own town, village or street: pupils learn what local history is, sort primary sources (old maps, the census, parish records, photographs, buildings, gravestones, oral history and local newspapers) from secondary sources such as books and websites, judge reliability and usefulness, analyse how an area changed through industry, transport, population and buildings, connect local change to national history, and plan a full enquiry from question to conclusion. Missions 1–3 are auto-marked on screen; Missions 4–5 are open enquiry and fieldwork tasks. Includes teacher, parent and pupil notes with a full answer key, and is fully SEND-friendly with high-contrast and large-text modes.
