History teaching at St. Margaret’s aims to fully immerse children in to a period of history through fascinating, challenging and thought-provoking experiences. Our approach provides children with a thorough chronological timeline as a result we teach some periods in history in chronological sequence, spread across KS2, such as the Romans, Anglo-Saxons and the Vikings. We study other ancient periods non-chronologically.
Our topics provide children with many opportunities to develop their historical knowledge and skills. Lessons intend to improve pupils’ ability to explore different lines of enquiry, think critically, evaluate sources and develop perspective to support their judgement.
