History

The History Curriculum empowers learners to become curious, develop their own opinions based on a respect for evidence, and build a deeper understanding of the present by engaging with and questioning the past. What we want children to know is clearly mapped out in our curriculum grids. We believe it is important to provide our children with well-connected knowledge, as the connections between facts foster understanding and lead to the development of crucial skills such as problem-solving and critical thinking.

Intelligent repetition of content is built into our curriculum, as we recognise that children need to retrieve core knowledge quickly if they are to use it effectively.
