Sixth Form Students Explore Tudor History at Hampton Court Palace

On Thursday 7 November, our Year 12 and 13 History students enjoyed an enriching day at Hampton Court Palace on Thursday 7 November, immersing themselves in the grandeur and complexity of Tudor history.

The visit offered students an up-close experience of the iconic palace that was central to the lives of Henry VIII and his court, helping to bring their Tudor studies to life.

Exploring Hampton Court’s historic halls, including the majestic Great Hall and the kitchens once bustling with activity, students gained insights into court life, politics, and the immense influence of the monarchy during the Tudor period. This experience deepened their understanding of this transformative era and offered them a unique chance to connect directly with their A-level studies.

A fantastic trip for our budding historians, who are now well-equipped to delve even deeper into the fascinating Tudor period!
