Learning about the past is the starting point for our learning in the autumn term, as history leads the way in our 'Discover' theme. Children learn about key events in Britain's history, and significant turning points and changes in other nations.

By developing a sense of chronology, links are made between key areas of learning and displayed on our timeline so that children can make connections between them. They learn to work with sources, ask and answer questions, consider points of view and find that our knowledge about the past can help us to understand our world better. 

Although the timelines below are topic-specific, a central timeline on display helps children to make links between periods studied so that a fuller understanding of history is developed.

We study geography to help us to understand and appreciate the amazing world we live in. Studying history helps us to understand how people and places change over time.
