History Curriculum

Intent:

For pupils to understand the way the past impacts upon the future and how sources and artefacts influence the world.

• to ignite children's curiosity about the past in Britain and the wider world, and increase their understanding of the present in the context of the past; to understand how the past influences the present by finding out about how and why the world, our country, culture and local community have developed over time
• to develop a context for their growing sense of identity and a chronological framework for their knowledge of significant events and people.
