History
Intent
Our intent for history at Pinfold Street is to inspire curious pupils who develop secure, growing knowledge of the past — from our local stories and community to the wider national and international events that shaped the world. We want pupils to ask thoughtful questions, make connections across time, and use evidence to understand how people lived, changed and influenced one another so they leave school prepared for life.
Implementation
The curriculum is planned in well-sequenced, progressive lessons. Each unit has an overarching enquiry question. The children are taught in blocks to immerse them in their learning to enable them to know more and remember more. We use Grammarsaurus units of work to support our history curriculum.

Impact
Pupils can make links between different themes and historical events. They will recognise similarities and differences, know about key events and build an overview of history in their community, Britain and around the world. Opportunities are planned by staff to study an aspect of British, world and local history throughout their learning journey so that pupils can develop an understanding of why certain events happened.
