HistorY
At St. Philip’s CE (A) Primary School, we aim to provide our children with a history curriculum which enables them to become confident, inquisitive and independent learners, having developed an understanding of the past through learning about human achievements and experiences. We investigate sources such as pictures, stories and artefacts to ask and answer questions about the past and how it impacts our present and our future. We learn about the children's own personal history, and develop their sense of chronology throughout the study of topics through Key Stages 1 and 2. We seek to develop children's passion for history by providing them with opportunities to understand the past in a real-life context both inside and outside of the classroom through educational visits, visitors, experimentation, exploration and discovery.
