“Ambition for All”
Our history curriculum aims to inspire pupils to be curious, thoughtful, and reflective learners who understand the past and its influence on the world today. Guided by our Christian ethos and our vision to soar to the heights together, we encourage pupils to value truth, justice, compassion and respect as they explore the lives, experiences and beliefs of people from different times and places.
Our history curriculum is carefully sequenced so that pupils build secure knowledge over time. They develop a clear sense of chronology and an understanding of key historical concepts such as change, continuity, cause and consequence, similarity and difference, and significance. Through the study of a wide range of historical periods and perspectives, pupils learn to ask thoughtful questions, evaluate evidence and form reasoned conclusions.
We aim to ensure ambition for all regardless of background or starting points and remove barriers so that every pupil can access the history curriculum and develop as informed, compassionate individuals who can soar to the heights together.
