History at St Peter’s aims to foster in children an interest in the past, develop an understanding of chronology, and develop the skills of historical enquiry.
Key stage one focuses on changes within living memory, events beyond living memory, lives of significant individuals and significant events, people and places in London.
Key stage two learn about ancient civilisations in Britain, and then in other countries of the world. From Year 4 there are topics that look at significant turning points in British history and link that to local history.
History is taught once a term from Year 1 and each unit is half a term in length. There will be elements of history within the geography curriculum and vice versa.
