--- title: "History" url: "https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/history" school: "Black Firs Primary School" --- # History ### History History at Black Firs Primary School centres on the historical interactions of people and events throughout time; the influence of History on all aspects of our lives, shaping the customs and beliefs of the communities to which we belong. We understand the importance of developing children’s knowledge, skills and understanding. The teaching of History therefore not only concentrates on the knowledge and skills outlined in the National Curriculum but it takes a holistic, creative approach which gives children the opportunity to focus around a central theme for the term. Impactful learning in History also comes from educational visits, artefacts, visitors, and role play. By utilising the schools creative process, we are able to make history relevant to our children so that they gain a deep individual understanding of what happened, why and how it impacts on their lives today. --- #### Please click on the icon below to view the subject policy. #### [![](https://black-firs.co.uk/images/icon/Subject_Policy_Icon_New.png)](https://blackfirsco.sharepoint.com/:w:/s/TeachingStaff/Ebsl7jf6FAxJs0Do1j9C9EsBR9bAvm5os7TFyB5Sx8lx7w?e=0HEu2u) Kapow History Skills Progression 884 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/black-firs-primary-school/files/documents/M_Mixed-age-History-Skeleton-SK-by-unit-20.03.25.pdf) Kapow History Parent Guide - Cycle B 227 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/black-firs-primary-school/files/documents/Mixed-age-History-website-version-LTP-outline-Cycle-B-11.09.24.pdf) Kapow History Parent Guide - Cycle A 225 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/black-firs-primary-school/files/documents/Mixed-age-History-website-version-LTP-outline-Cycle-A-11.09.24(1).pdf) Kapow History Long Term Plan 1.76 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/black-firs-primary-school/files/documents/Mixed-age-Long-term-plan-A4-Template_KP22-History-22.04.25.pdf) National Curriculum - History 133 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/black-firs-primary-school/files/documents/curriculum/primary_national_curriculum_-_history.pdf) ### Our Curriculum - [Our Approach](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/our-curriculum) - [Personal Development](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/personal-development) - [Early Years Curriculum](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/early-years-curriculum) - [English](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/english) - [Maths](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/maths) - [Science](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/science) - [Art & Design](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/art-design) - [Computing](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/computing) - [Design & Technology](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/design-technology) - [Geography](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/geography) - [History](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/history) - [Languages](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/languages) - [Music](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/music) - [Physical Education](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/physical-education) - [Religious Education](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/religious-education) - [RSHE](https://black-firs.co.uk/our-curriculum/rshe) [![](https://files.schudio.com/black-firs-primary-school/images/logo/Black_Firs_Logo_icon_black_circle(1).png)](https://tlptrust.com/) **Black Firs Primary School** Longdown Road Congleton CW12 4QJ office@black-firs.co.uk 01260 272935 Headteacher - Anna Jones SENCO - Anna Jones Safeguarding Lead - Anna Jones ![The Learning Partnership](https://files.schudio.com/black-firs-primary-school/images/logo/TheLearningPartnership_WHT_TransparentBG(1).png) The Learning Partnership is a charitable company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales.
