Year 6 Art
21 Nov 2022
Our Year 6 children have prodiced some fabulous art work.
Our history curriculum aims to instil in children a desire to be curious about the past. We aim to bring our history teaching to life by using visitors and visits to support history learning. Our pupils use their history learning to develop a chronology of the history of the British Isles as well as studying world history through famous people, events and places. Alongside this, they develop the skills needed to be an historian. The study of History supports our pupils to build a temporal awareness and a developing sense of identity as they come to understand their place in the story of human development. As a school we recognise that engaging children and young people in investigating questions about people and events in the past helps them to better understand their lives today and prepares them for the future as more informed citizens. Engaging our pupils with a relevant, exciting and challenging history curriculum which inspires curiosity and is appropriate for preparing them for an adult life in the 21st century is essential since it:
The National Curriculum provides an outline of core knowledge, skills and understanding around which teachers can develop exciting and stimulating units of work and lessons. Our staff have spent considerable time developing their long-term curriculum maps for their year groups to ensure that the full requirements of the National Curriculum are met.
These subject specific documents outline the content of the curriculum for each year group, across the academic year and provide an excellent insight into what each year group will be teaching.
