Marlborough Primary School

History

Our curriculum allows children to develop a chronological, coherent knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and the history of the wider world in order to inspire children to think about the past so that they can act as historians. It teaches the complexity of people’s lives, the process of change, the diversity of societies and
relationships between different groups, as about the lives and impact of significant historical individuals. Children will explore the connections, contrasts and trends over time, develop a glossary of historical terms and have a firm understanding of the range of sources which help to construct knowledge about the past so that they can ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh and sift evidence.
