Greenfield Primary School
History
Intent:
The curriculum at Greenfield Primary School aims to prepare children in understanding the world around them and prepare them to be able to positively impact on society. We want our pupils to be both interesting and interested and to have a good understanding of basic English and mathematics skills so that they are secondary ready when they move to their secondary school phase of education. By the time learners have left Greenfield Primary School, they will have mastered a range of both skills and factual knowledge through regular requirements to recall and demonstrate them; opportunities to practise through careful planning for progression and depth. Our curriculum is customised to meet the vast range of needs of all our learners.
Implementation:
At Greenfield Primary school for History we use PlanBee.
Within KS1, LKS2 and UKS2 we use a two-year rolling cycle. In each year children will do three History schemes of work comprising of 5 to 7 series of lessons.
In using PlanBee we are ensuring:
- Coverage of National Curriculum objectives
- Creating lessons that are engaging, informative and challenging
- Making sure that lessons are accessible to all learners
