Our teaching of History will help pupils gain a coherent knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world.

It will inspire pupils’ curiosity about the past and to know more about the past.

We will teach our children the skills to enable them to ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments, and develop perspective and judgement.

Through the teaching of History, we endeavour to teach children 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.

Our pupils will realise that the past is gone and history is constructed and contested. History’s unique concepts help pupils to construct arguments and support them to become analytical citizens who can question human motivation and society with skill and confidence.
