A small school with a big vision
Intent of our history curriculum, provision and enrichment
The intent of our history curriculum is to develop a deep knowledge and understanding of a range of ancient to modern historical periods from Britain and the wider world. Through a coherent, chronological narrative, a clear sense of time will be understood, alongside an appreciation of how significant individuals and civilisations have influenced the past and present. They will flourish as curious historians, enquiring and interpreting the past to enrich their understanding of their world and how it is richly interconnected.
Implementation
Inclusivity
Valuing every child as a unique individual, teaching and learning will be adapted to ensure equitable provision, representing all protective characteristics.
Spiritual, moral, social and cultural development
Within our history curriculum, we explore and make connections with a balance of spiritual, moral, social and cultural aspects in order to prepare our children for life in modern Britain and our diverse world.
Curriculum Content
Progression of knowledge

My favourite periods in history are the Jurassic and Palaeolithic. I‘m really interested in how people during the Palaeolithic were nomads, always adapting to their environment and the animals that were around them. Palaeolithic peoples were very different to us but some aspects of their lives were similar to ours.
