Intent in History
Here at Brinscall St John’s we want to deliver a curriculum that inspires creativity when thinking about the past, through historical enquiry.
Pupils should:
- become problem solvers, equipping them to ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments and develop perspective and judgement.
- have a good understanding of chronology and the order in which key historical events have occurred.
- understand the complexity of people’s lives, the process of change, the diversity of societies and relationships between different groups, as well as their own identity and the challenges of their time.
- Develop an understanding of healthy minds and bodies, making links with the past and the impact on life today.
This will enable pupils to have a deeper understanding of God’s world and shine with the light of Jesus.
