Malvern Wells CE Primary School
History
|
Subject Aim |
At Malvern Wells CE Primary School, we believe history helps every child understand how the past has shaped the world they live in today, enabling them to Let their Light Shine in the future. Rooted in our Christian vision and the National Curriculum, our history curriculum develops knowledgeable, curious historians who think critically, ask meaningful questions and use evidence to understand Britain's past, its place within the wider world and how the past continues to shape the present. |
|
Curriculum Design |
Our history curriculum is carefully sequenced through a mixed-age, two-year cycle. Carefully selected substantive and disciplinary knowledge is organised into progressive component knowledge that builds towards secure composite understanding. Through retrieval, meaningful connections and historical enquiry, pupils revisit and deepen their understanding over time, enabling them to know more, remember more and think more deeply as historians. |
|
End Points |
By the end of Year 6, pupils confidently use historical evidence to explain change and continuity, identify cause and consequence, evaluate historical significance and recognise that interpretations of the past can differ. They understand Britain's story within a local, national and global context. |
