This week, our Year 10 students visited the National Holocaust Museum as part of our ‘Power and Prejudice’ expedition. The visit supported learning in both GCSE History, focusing on life under Nazi rule, and GCSE Ethics by exploring Judaism. 

Students explored the museum’s powerful exhibitions and beautiful memorial gardens before hearing the moving testimony of a Holocaust survivor. Listening to their first-hand experiences brought history to life and encouraged students to reflect on the importance of challenging prejudice, discrimination and hatred.

The day was a valuable opportunity to deepen students’ understanding of the Holocaust and its lasting lessons for society today. We are incredibly proud of the respect, maturity and empathy shown by all students throughout the visit.
