Pupils at Broad Oak enjoy learning about the past. They are curious learners who love to find out how things have changed through time. They like to compare and contrast and offer their opinions on how life used to be.

Intent Statement

At Broad Oak Primary, our History curriculum, delivered through the  Kapow scheme, aims to ignite curiosity and deepen pupils’ understanding of the past. We develop critical thinking, chronological awareness, and historical enquiry skills by exploring diverse societies, significant events, and key concepts such as power, migration, and empire. Our engaging lessons help children make meaningful connections across time and prepare them for future learning.

Implementation Statement

At Broad Oak Primary, we implement our History curriculum through a structured and engaging scheme. Lessons are sequenced to build chronological understanding, historical enquiry, and key concepts over time. Pupils use a range of sources to investigate the past, develop critical thinking, and make meaningful connections across periods and cultures. Learning is enriched through discussion, hands-on activities, and cross-curricular links
