“Our vision is to help pupils gain a coherent knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. Our teachers aim to inspire pupils’ curiosity to know more about the past and equip pupils to ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments, and develop perspective and judgement.”
We firmly believe that History helps 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.
We aim to give children the chance to experience History by receiving high quality curriculum enrichment experiences both in and outside of school. We want to inspire our children to become the Historians of the future!
What do pupils think about our history curriculum –
“I liked the boat and he (Columbus) sailed around the world. He looked at a map.” (FS2)
“I love learning about WW2. I liked trying on all the different things. The gas mask was horrible!” (Y4)
“My favourite thing is the Stone Age. I think I know a lot about it. I liked learning about how people lived then” (Y3)
