History

Our pupils are curious about the past. They enquire about the causes of historical events and understand the impact that these have had.

Through their history lessons, pupils learn the variety of ways in which the past is represented and are taught to interpret a range of sources, both primary and secondary.

They develop a secure understanding of chronology. The skills acquired in history equip pupils to consider and evaluate current world events and to predict the possible effects these will have on the future.

We use primary sources in our local area, to inform our planning and visits as much as possible.

History is alternated with geography throughout the school year.
