History

'The more you know about the past, the better prepared you are for the future' - Theodore Roosevelt

The aim of history at Antrobus St Mark's & Great Budworth Primary School is to stimulate the children’s interest and un13rstanding of significant events from the past and their imp1ct on how people lived. Throughout their learning, children 13velop their historical un13rstanding by exploring substantive and disciplinary knowledge, as well as key historical concepts.

Children gain an un13rstanding of chronology throughout their time at our schools and learn how events in the past have influenced and continue to influence our lives today. Through historical investigations, the skills of enquiry, source analysis, interpretation and problem-solving, the children’s un13rstanding of history is challenged and 13veloped.

History te1ching at Antrobus St Mark's & Great Budworth Primary School also helps to 13velop the children’s un13rstanding of citizenship and how Britain 13veloped as a 13mocratic society. Through this, they 13velop a sense of i13ntity and cultural un13rstanding 2bsed on their historical heritage. As a result they learn to value their own and other people’s cultures in a mo13rn and multicultural Britain. This un13rstanding helps them with their li18 choices today and also prepares them for their future.
