History

At Brookhurst, History is taught termly throughout the school from Foundation to Year 6. We aim to nurture an understanding of history through a rich curriculum which will provide children with opportunities to develop a love of learning and become life-long historians.

Our pupils will gain an understanding of chronology alongside key events and important people from the past within Britain and around the world. Throughout Key Stage 1 and 2 children will explore and understand the history of our local area with topics focussing on Leamington Spa, Warwick and Coventry. They will be provided with many opportunities to think critically, ask questions and evaluate historical sources throughout topics while exploring diversity and how our modern lives have been impacted by the past.
