History · EYFS to KS2
Discover a rich, carefully sequenced history curriculum from EYFS to KS2. Engaging lessons build historical knowledge, chronological understanding and enquiry skills as pupils explore people, events and civilisations from the past.
Through historical sources, compelling stories and thought-provoking questions, pupils learn to analyse evidence, explore cause and consequence, consider different perspectives and think like historians.
Our approach
Our history curriculum is organised chronologically, so pupils leave Year 6 with a coherent picture of the past rather than a set of topics studied in isolation.
Pupils build one connected picture of the past, not topics studied in isolation.
Units cover social, cultural, political and military history, including ancient and non-European civilisations.
Sequenced enquiry questions ask pupils to analyse evidence.
Pupils weigh why certain events still carry significance.
