History

‘I would like to be remembered as a person who wanted to be free...so other people would also be free.’ Rosa Parks

We are totally committed to learning of the highest standard in academic, personal and social forms and have these aspirations for all children in our care.

Our History curriculum is based on the National Curriculum aims and subject content. Our aim is to ensure children have a high quality history education that helps them to gain a coherent knowledge and under of Britain’s past, and that of the wider world, and to inspire their curiosity to know more about the past.

Topics are organised over a two year rolling programme due to mixed aged classes.

Resources from the CUSP curriculum support the development of key language, vocabulary and knowledge in the subject.

We incorporate the UN Global Goals within our history learning and strive to ensure children learn historical skills that they can use as they progress through this school (and beyond) and apply to new learning. We endeavour to make history a living subject that links the past with the present and the future and encourages children to ask challenging and meaningful questions about change, cause, similarity and difference, and significance.

Our Vision

George Romney is a safe and happy place to learn.

Our children are nurtured as individuals with different abilities and talents which are celebrated and developed.

Our stimulating and reflective curriculum inspires children to ask questions and develop positive attitudes to learning, both now and for the future.
