    About this course

    History

    Our course:

    The course follows the national curriculum at key stage 3 and aims to support students to: –

    • know and understand the history of the United Kingdom as a coherent, chronological narrative
    • know and understand significant aspects of history across the wider world
    • gain and deploy an historically grounded understanding of abstract terms such as ‘empire’ or ‘civilisation’
    • understand historical concepts such as continuity and change, cause and consequence, similarity, difference, and significance
    • understand the methods of historical enquiry including sources and evidence

    During years 7, 8 and 9, our students develop their knowledge and understanding by exploring distinct historical periods such as medieval history, the making of the United Kingdom 1500 – 1750, Napoleon, the French revolution, trade and industry 1750 –1900 and the 20th century world and WW1. Learning is structured to develop historical understanding and enquiry methodology across the three years.

    Our course teaches students to identify significant events, make connections, draw contrasts, and analyse trends within periods and over long arcs of time.
    Over time, we expect our students to use historical terms and concepts in increasingly sophisticated ways.

    Student progress is measured by both formative and summative assessments. Formative assessments take place regularly and in a variety of formats ranging from group discussions and collaboration, written tasks, quizzes, student enquiries and presentations. Students complete one summative assessment each half-term in which they are required to demonstrate their understanding of a topic using a range of source analysis, contrasting arguments, and interpretations.

    VAT charges explained

    The UK Government has implemented a policy to charge VAT on independent schools taking effect from the 1st of January 2025. This VAT charge is payable by families who are based in, or access, King’s InterHigh from the UK. This change does not impact families who are based outside the UK and access King’s InterHigh from another country.

    We understand the significant financial commitment you make in choosing our online school as well as how important it is to be able to financially plan. After careful review of the details of the legislation, we will support parents by absorbing costs ourselves, so that a slower phasing in of this unwelcome change reduces its financial impact on families.

    For the upcoming 2024-2025 academic year (starting September 2024), Inspired Education Group will absorb much of the 20% VAT charge. For the Spring and Summer terms when the 20% VAT will now apply, we will only pass on 8.5% to families, taking up the difference ourselves.

    To further support families with the financial implications of this change in government policy, for the 2025-2026 academic year (starting in September 2025) there will be no inflationary tuition fee increases, and that Inspired Education Group will continue to absorb costs to limit the increase to 8.5% for that academic year. Overall, this will mean we have phased in 17% of the 20% VAT cost over two years to avoid sudden increases for families and have not increased tuition fees.

    King’s InterHigh is committed to offering competitive fees and accessible, high-quality independent education, along with the unique benefits of online learning. We are pleased that through careful cost control and the benefits of being part of Inspired, the leading global group of premium schools, we can significantly reduce the financial effect on families due to this change in UK VAT policy.
