History
The National Curriculum states History should be fundamental ‘to equip pupils to ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments, and develop perspective and judgement. History helps pupils to understand the complexity of people’s lives, the process of change, the diversity of societies and relationships between different groups, as well as their own identity and the challenges of their time’.
'Pupils should develop coherent knowledge of British past and wider world. They should understand the coherence and chronology of Britain so that they can understand the wider world influence on the British Isles. The nature of ancient civilisation and the expansion and dissolution of empires.
These skills help them to analyse trends and ask historically valid questions' Mary Myatt.
