The intent is to support the creation of confident and knowledgeable young historians and geographers, and to have learning experiences that promote an enthusiasm for and enjoyment of these subjects.

​

The KS1 curriculum builds disciplinary knowledge through a focus on developing subject specific concepts, like evidence and decision making, so that children enter KS2 ready to engage with more substantive knowledge, and leave primary school ready for the secondary school Humanities curriculum.

​

By providing a chronological approach to History units covered in KS2, children will experience a sense of their British and cultural identities in a global context, across time.
