History

Ensuring that all our children become 'Inspirational Leaders is one of our 5 curriculum drivers. We have designed a high quality history curriculum which fosters children's fascination with the past, develops their chronological knowledge and equips them with the skills to investigate. We recognise learning from the past is a fundamental way in which a society transmits its cultural heritage from one generation to the next.  History allows children to develop an appreciation of what went before as well as how they can learn from historical events.
