Our history curriculum is designed to deliver a high-quality education that helps pupils develop a coherent understanding of Britain’s past and the wider world. It aims to spark curiosity and inspire a lifelong interest in history.

Through engaging lessons, pupils learn to:

• Ask perceptive questions
• Think critically and weigh evidence
• Sift arguments and form balanced judgments
• Develop perspective and informed opinions

History enables pupils to appreciate the complexity of people’s lives, the processes of change, the diversity of societies, and the relationships between different groups. It also helps them explore their own identity and the challenges of their time.

We use key historical concepts to investigate the past:

• Significance
• Interpretation
• Cause and Consequence
• Historical Evidence
• Similarities and Differences
• Chronology
