History
Being a central London school
we are lucky we have so much history on our door step. It is possible
for us to take advantage of these primary resources by taking the
children to some of the best museums in the world.
Infant classes are taught
an awareness of the past, the children begin to make comparisons
between past and present and are introduced to different types of
historical sources, e.g.. artefacts, buildings, books, objects,
pictures, people.
Junior classes are taught about
ancient civilisations and the history of other parts of the world e.g.
Ancient Greece and Egypt. We encourage the children to develop a
sense of chronology and learn about changes in everyday life over long
periods of time, where topics lend we want the children to develop
research, enquiry and communication skills.
