<p>The information requested is not held centrally.</p><p> </p><p>The history curriculum
gives teachers and schools the freedom and flexibility to use specific examples from
history to teach pupils about the history of Britain and the wider world. Schools
and teachers themselves can determine which examples and topics to use to stimulate
and challenge pupils and reflect key points in history.</p><p> </p><p>Additionally,
there is scope within the citizenship curriculum to highlight relevant key historical
events. A high-quality citizenship education helps to provide pupils with knowledge,
skills and understanding to prepare them to play a full and active part in society.
The Department expects schools to go beyond the core knowledge set out in the shorter
programmes of study to deliver other aspects of citizenship. Schools themselves are
best placed to determine the most effective way of including these challenges within
the school curriculum.</p>
