At Somerford Primary, we believe that high-quality history lessons inspire children to want to know more about the past and to think and act as historians. By linking learning to a range of topics, children have opportunities to investigate and interpret the past, understand chronology, build an overview of Britain’s past as well as that of the wider world, and to be able to communicate historically. At Somerford Primary the children will develop an excellent knowledge and understanding of people, events and contexts from a range of historical periods, including significant events. They will also develop sense of curiosity about the past and how and why people interpret the past in different ways.
