History
INTENT
Croft children will leave us as Historians. They will have a global knowledge of events through time, from the Stone Age to today. The children will have a deep understanding of chronology and will be able to use increasingly complex vocabulary to explain periods of time. The children will be able to make global connections and comparisons between periods of time and different civilisations.
They will know that we benefit from many historical legacies and that these events changes lives, often for the better but not always. The children will know why ‘significant’ people of the past are still called ‘significant’ people today.
Croft historians will be able to use and independently evaluate evidence and will understand why some periods of time are
better know that others. Children will leave Croft as historians.
Children at Croft will appreciate the ties between past and present and will be able to see the complexities of relationships around the world. Through history, children will gain a strong knowledge of chronology which will be built upon year on year. At the end of their school journey the children will have a clear overview of many significant events and people in our community, national and globally and will know how they fit together.
