Young Historian Project 2025 – Competition Results

The quality of entries this year was very high, and many were received from schools who
had not previously entered, which is encouraging. Congratulations to all those who entered,
and especially to those mentioned below who were judged the best in their age groups.
Our thanks go to Dr Trevor James, Dr Jane Ainsworth and all the judging panel at the Young
Historian Project for their hard work in this ever-growing competition. Details for entry into
