How is the subject taught?
We have a whole school History focus during the Spring Term where the majority of the history curriculum is taught. However, cross curricular history themes, skills and knowledge are taught and developed throughout the year. Please refer to the whole school History overview for more details.
How is the subject assessed?
Assessment for learning takes place in lessons through questioning, discussion, target setting and evaluation. Pupils are given regular opportunities to reflect on their own work and set themselves targets. Teachers use school tracking and assessment documents to record each pupils progress. this is reported to parents on annual reports and throughout the year during parent, pupil and teacher meetings.

We aim to ensure pupils develop a greater understanding of significant historical events, people and places locally, nationally and globally.
Children will develop the skills and knowledge:-
- To develop an awareness of the past through opportunities for research and discussion using common vocabulary and phrases
- To ask and answer questions
- To research, explore and begin to learn about historical periods and where the people and events they study fit in within a chronological framework
- To learn about the lives of significant individuals in the past who have contributed to national and international achievements, some should be used to compare aspects of life in different periods
- To learn about changes within living memory – where appropriate, these should be used to reveal aspects of change in national life
