History

In The Weald Federation, we will provide our children with the skills, knowledge and empathy they need to become successful, creative and curious learners. We want our children to have a chronologically secure knowledge and understanding of local, British, and world history, establishing clear narratives within and across the periods they study. Through quality first teaching, our curriculum will provide opportunities for historical enquiry, hands on experiences and critical thinking, encouraging children to interpret and find connections between historical concepts and the periods of history studied. Real-life experiences outside of the classroom bring this history to life. Children will explore the complexity of people’s lives and the diverse society we live in, as well as begin to appreciate how lessons from the past can help us to respond to the challenges of our own current time.
