The Influence of the Past
Children across the school engage with historical sources to develop their critical thinking skills. They investigate artefacts, objects and secondary sources and make inferences about what they can tell us about the past. Children are taught disciplinary skills explicitly so that they understand how historians can make inferences about the past. Disciplinary skills have been a key focus across the school this term, evident in our new medium term planning format, which has had a positive impact on planning, teaching and progress.
