History
History is
taught from Reception to
Year 6. Our curriculum is based on the English National curriculum but
we have especially adapted it to suit our multi-cultural school. We use
a wide range of books, videos and field trips to stimulate the child's
interest. Please
see the table below for a summary of our topics.
