In Key Stage 1 children learn a range of skills in history including developing a wide range of vocabulary, using artefacts and placing events and objects on a timeline. These skills will develop through focussing on key events and figures in history. Year 1 will include looking at The Moon Landing and Christopher Columbus. Year 2 will include looking at The Titanic and Queen Victoria.

In Key Stage 2, each year group gets a wide scope of history. They study a period of British history before 1066, an ancient civilisation from around the world, and either an aspect of British history post-1066 or the local area. The British units are delivered in chronological order, from the Stone Age right up to the settlement by the Vikings, Normans and Scots, to build-up the children's understanding of the story of Britain and how it developed over time.
