--- title: "History" url: "https://www.st-johnfisher.merton.sch.uk/curriculum/history" school: "St. John Fisher RC Primary School" --- # History ## History To ensure that pupils develop a secure knowledge that they can build on, our History curriculum is organised into a progression model that outlines the skills, knowledge and vocabulary to be taught in a sequentially coherent way. Chronological Understanding; Historical Understanding; Historical Enquiry; Interpretations of History; Organisation and Communication are all mapped out to ensure that pupils build on secure prior knowledge. When covering each of these themes, the content will be carefully organised by each year group through a long term plan. Content knowledge, vocabulary and progression of skills & knowledge will then be planned for at a greater level of detail in the medium term plan. History is delivered through subject specific teaching organised into blocks under a theme. Meaningful links with other subjects are made to strengthen connections and understanding for pupils.
