History at Highwoods is taught through our theme lessons.  All the way from the Stone Age to the Moon Landing with plenty of stops in between. 

We try to enrich our learning as much as possible.  Throughout both KS1 and KS2 we have visits and special days to make our curriculum accessible and memorable.

Children enjoy learning about the past, they enjoy the range of approaches used by class teachers and feel that they are able to take some ownership of their learning as planning involves them and their interests. 

The children gain a strong chronological understanding and we explore the subject through lots of cross curricular learning.
