Intent
Childhood is a time of great natural inquisitiveness, a time where children begin to develop a sense of how and why the world is as it is.
Humanities perform an integral role when empowering our children to become active, engaged and informed Global Citizens. At Carlton Primary School we capture their ever increasing interest, questioning and enquiry to immerse them in the knowledge of our world in the present, past and future.
Through History, our children will develop the foundation of chronology, which is embedded in learning about significant people and events that have shaped our locality and world. Our teaching ensures our children reflect, compare and think critically to understand the past. With their increasing oracy skills our children develop a sense of perspective and judgement, which scaffolds their reasoning skills when considering causes and consequences.
Implementation
Following the National Curriculum, alongside Hywell Roberts' Imagineering, the children are captured and immersed in the subject of History through a Topic. Ensuring the progression of skills is scaffolded with Knowledge organisers, vocabulary lists, Historian visitors and trips, our children are taken on a journey of identity.

Through the learning opportunities children are able to express and articulate the human condition by making links and comparing civilizations through time.
