Intent

Our history curriculum is designed to ensure that learners are:

• curious and understanding about Britain’s past and that of the wider world
• able to research further, to question what they've learnt and to begin to understand how historical sources are used to learn about the past
• understanding of different historical periods, with a ‘mental timeline’ of the past.

Teaching Strategies We Implement

Chronological knowledge is regularly revisited and informally assessed. This knowledge supports pupils to place their learning in context both in history and across other subjects. Pupils have opportunities to discuss broader developments across the periods they study, requiring them to draw on secure and well-organised knowledge of events and periods. Pupils learn about how historians construct different interpretations of the past.
