History

Lanesend Primary School’s History curriculum affords every child the opportunity to become an inquisitive and creative learner who delves into history, enabling them to understand the world around them, both past and present. We want children to learn from mankind's past mistakes and build an understanding of how the diversity of cultures and societies came to be. Through our curriculum, they will have the knowledge to analyse and query what they know, develop an empathy for others and the circumstances they have faced, build a chronological awareness of periods of time and develop the historical skills of enquiry needed to be a successful historian and member of society. Lanesend Primary School’s curriculum is based on Kapow, providing a progressive sequence of learning which develops their knowledge of significant events and individuals in global, British and local history. They will learn to use key disciplinary vocabulary to express themselves as historians.
