Children learn the skills to think critically, weigh evidence, sift arguments, and develop perspective and judgement. The children\u2019s deep learning of history and its related information gathering skills will enable them to have an understanding of where we have come from and how this has been influenced by the wider world and different cultural heritages.<\/p><p>This in turn will enable us to learn from the past, model the future and understand society and the child\u2019s place within it. Furthermore, it gives us a view of other cultures and their development through time. We believe that learning about historical events provides an important context for the development of pupils\u2019 key learning skills, particularly communication, working with others, problem solving and critical thinking skills and that this will be done not just through experiences in the classroom but also through the use of field work and educational visits.<\/p><p>For more information, please
