History

Our Intent, Implementation and Impact Statement

Intent

At Holbeach Primary School the History provision develops a deep curiosity for history and an enthusiastic engagement in learning throughout the school. Through a rich curriculum and intentional enrichment, pupils explore the past, developing their own historical enquiry and understanding of the ways in which history can be interpreted.

Children at Holbeach, enjoy learning about a range of periods in history and where each period studied relates to the previous. Our curriculum encourages children to explore topics and themes through methods such as critical discussion, questioning and analysis of a range of sources. As a result of this, Holbeach’s pupils will leave with the skills to understand the complexity of people’s lives, cultures and struggles, and identify themes and patterns throughout history, as well as linking this to their own sense of belonging within the world.
