History

Intent

At Coleshill, our intention is to inspire children to be curious about the past and to develop an understanding of who we are, where we come from and the ideas and events that have shaped us and the world around us. We enable children to know about significant events in British history, and to appreciate how things have changed over time. We develop a sense of chronology and help children see trends and themes that can inform our actions and help us make responsible choices and contributions to society in the future.  We want children to ask and answer questions and begin considering different ways in which the past is represented and be able to talk about their learning using appropriate historical terms and vocabulary relating to the passing of time.
