Our pupil's perspective;

“In History, we make sense of the present, and the past and learn how it affects today”

Subject Leadership

History Intent:

In History, we aim to ensure that our children gain an excellent knowledge and understanding of people, events, and contexts from a range of historical. We want them to develop the ability to think critically about history and communicate ideas confidently They will learn and foster the ability to consistently support, evaluate and challenge their own and others’ views using detailed and accurate historical evidence derived from a range of sources. They will develop the ability to think, reflect, debate, discuss and evaluate the past, formulating and refining questions and lines of enquiry. We aim that our children will leave school with a passion for history and an enthusiastic engagement in learning, which develops their sense of curiosity about the past and their understanding of how and why people interpret the past in different ways. We strive for our pupils to think and act as historians.
