Struggling to get release time to monitor History or having to complete subject monitoring in your PPA? This Ten-Minute Subject Monitoring in History Pack provides a solution to the challenges of having a high level of accountability as a primary subject leader but not having the time to complete the monitoring activities necessary - often because of factors beyond your control, such as the school budget, booking supply or getting cover.
Ten-minute subject monitoring works by identifying different time slots where you can be away from your teaching commitments in order to conduct a precise and focused subject monitoring activity on one element, such as a book look focusing on one strand of the History curriculum or a single 10-minute lesson drop-in. So rather than trying to find a full afternoon's cover to conduct a term or half-term's worth of monitoring, you can spread monitoring across a term by choosing slots where teaching and learning in your own classroom won't be impacted.
Aimed at primary History subject leads (or those line managing a History subject leader), this pack walks you through the entire process and is full of ideas on how to find and utilise ten-minute time slots for subject monitoring, as well as what you should be looking for in your monitoring when it comes to substantive knowledge and concepts, disciplinary knowledge and concepts, plus the chronological knowledge and historical terms and phenomena pupils need to grasp.

The audit walks you through different reflective questions about your subject, allowing you to identify your current strengths and make a plan for any areas of development. The following types of questions are included - why not see if you can answer them about your subject?
- What opportunities do we offer through extracurricular [subject] clubs and activities? How do we ensure all pupils can access these?
- What opportunities are there within the local community to provide rich cultural experiences for our pupils in [subject]?
- Are pupils given the opportunity to make their own decisions in [subject], for example, with independent activities, free-choice time, clubs, book choices?
Questions like these can help you critically reflect on your subject in order to makes changes to give your pupils the best possible experiences as well as celebrating your successes in enriching your pupils' lives. Aligned with the Ofsted School Inspection Handbook, it'll help you to show how pupils get the best opportunities in the subject you lead (and if you're a curriculum leader, we've got a Personal Development Audit that covers the entire curriculum too!)
