It is our intent that the history element of our curriculum will help pupils gain a coherent knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world and inspire pupils’ curiosity to know more about the past. As our pupils progress they will become equipped to ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments, and develop perspective and judgement. We want pupils to understand the complexity of people’s lives, the process of change, the diversity of societies and relationships between different groups, as well as their own identity and the challenges of their time. They will have a thorough understanding of chronology and how the periods studied relate to one another across time and places.
Our History Subject Leader is Mrs Willis.
We adapt planning from Key Stage History. We also ensure that Catholic Social Teaching is linked (when appropriate) explicitly and implicitly through our History Curriculum. For example, when studying WW2, Class 6 will also consider the theme of rights and responsibilities.
