Intent
History at Red Hill is brought to life through exciting, memorable experiences and stories in which children can relate to historical events and people. Children should develop a fascination in the world around them and enjoy learning about the past. Our history curriculum is designed to:
- Give pupils a coherent and thorough knowledge and understanding of a range of time periods in Britain’s past and that of the wider world.
- Develop children as independent learners by taking an enquiry-based approach and encouraging curiosity.
- Develop children’s sense of self in relation to the things which have happened before them and understand the timeline of events which has led to who we are today.
- Equip pupils to think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments and develop perspective and judgement.
- Reflect the complexity and diversity of the past and explore a range of different individual and group experiences.
If you would like any further information about our history curriculum at Red Hill, please do not hesitate to contact the school.
