At Maltese Road Primary School, we aim to deliver a broad and high-quality history curriculum. We aim to support children in gaining a strong knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. Through our teaching of history we develop skills of enquiry, analysis and problem solving that are transferable and complementary to other areas of the curriculum. 

We supply children with a sense of chronology so that they can better understand when historical events happened around the world and how these events have influenced life today. We hope children can appreciate and understand their place in modern multicultural Britain and, by considering how people lived in the past, they are better equipped to make their own life choices today.
