To develop children’s experiences and understanding of Geography and History, inspiring and igniting their curiosity and understanding about the wider world. We use topics to deliver humanities subject skills and understanding. Our topic coverage is carefully planned to be age appropriate across all years. Topic maps are produced to show how each is taught, the knowledge and skills covered and links to other parts of the curriculum. Where appropriate, Maths, Science and PSHE are linked in topic teaching. All of our topics have a history and geography base so that we teach location and place knowledge, weather and climate skills and knowledge and about significant historical events, people and places in our own locality. Topic lessons also provide further opportunities to learn about people and cultures. Trips are carefully planned to enrich children’s learning and to enhance the curriculum.
