Learning Curve is a free educational website for history teachers and students. The site covers a wide range of topics studied in schools and FE colleges across the UK. Much of the content is British history, but we have included other topic areas as well. All our content is based on the History National Curriculum.
Our aim is to help you get the most out of your study of the subject. There are short lessons, in-depth exhibitions, activities and games - all featuring original sources from the amazing collection of the National Archives. These sources bring the historical themes to life.
Students
You can use the Learning Curve for researching an essay, a presentation, a report, a piece of course work or an in-depth personal study. You may want to use it for exam revision or to practise your work with sources. Just choose a topic from the Index and get started.
We also have some tips for study skills and further research:
