History

We believe that History stimulates children’s interest and understanding of the lives of people who have lived in the past and how this will shape our future.

Through the delivery of our History curriculum, we want our children to begin to understand the impact of both British and World History upon our lives today by learning about significant events, people and changes from the past.

Through the study of carefully selected Historical units and Historical figures (chosen to meet our bespoke community needs), our children are able to coherently recall key knowledge whilst also developing their skills of communication and historical enquiry skills by interpreting and analsying of a range of sources.

By the end of KS2, our children will begin to piece together how significant periods of History have impacted upon one another applying a deepening understanding of chronological frameworks. They will be curious about the role of History within their lives today and how it has impacted upon their own identity.
