Learning from the Past

Teaching children about challenging aspects of history, when taught in an age-appropriate and thoughtful way, can offer children a richer understanding of the world. They can support children to build empathy, social awareness and critical thinking. By exploring these topics, we help children develop a sense of fairness, justice and humanity while encouraging them to question and engage with the world around them - all skills which serve children far beyond the classroom.

Take a look at our specially selected History schemes of work that provide rich opportunities to discuss and learn from the past.
