All about me

Hi, my name is Mr Siddiqui and I am the Head of History at Two Mile Ash School. I have always been interested in learning about the past and think it’s incredibly important to have a broad view of history from all over the world.

Enquiry skills are crucial and I believe that history really helps children to develop these by studying a range of sources and learning about so many different eras and how the world has changed over time.

History at TMA

History is linked as closely as possible to learning journey topics throughout every year group in Two Mile Ash. Children will learn about a range of things from the Stone Age and Ancient Egyptians to both World Wars and how life in Britain has changed over the last few decades.

During their time at TMA children will be exposed to a wide variety of historical events including:

  • Black History Month (every October)

  • Remembrance Day (November)

  • Learning about important historical individuals from a range of eras
