‘People without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture are like trees without roots’ Marcus Garvey
History is the study of the past. It should help pupils gain a coherent knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. It should inspire pupils’ curiosity to know more about the past. At Lainesmead, we have tailored our curriculum to suit the needs of our children and believe that History should inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the past that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. We believe that History enables children to understand the complexity of people’s lives, the process of change, the diversity of societies and relationships between different groups, as well as their own identity and the challenges of their time
EYFS – The new EYFS Framework covers History in the Past and Present Early Learning Goal.
This is covered by:
Key Stage 1 & 2 - The national curriculum for History aims to ensure that all pupils:
History learning is recorded in the children’s Topic books. Each lesson is identified with the subject heading of History and an ‘I can’ statement sticker that is taken from each year groups Topic Organiser. Each I can statement is a small step towards the children achieving an overarching goal for the subject which again is found in red on the Topic Organisers. These ‘I can’ statements are then highlighted in the children’s books and the attainment is then recorded on the foundation subject assessment grid. At the end of the year, the subject leader and curriculum leader analyse the data and provide feedback in order to inform and improve future practice.
