\nMayfield History Vision
\n<\/b><\/strong><\/span>We want children to leave Mayfield with a coherent knowledge and understanding of Britain\u2019s past and the wider world. They are enthusiastic, curious and questioning learners. They are able to make connections with what they have learnt previously and what they are learning now. They are developing a mental timeline \u2013 linking their knowledge and understanding of different time periods to see where everything fits chronologically. They have developed their critical thinking to be able to question reliability and bias of primary and secondary sources.

We love History at Mayfield and want to inspire the children through carefully planned practical hands on sessions, alongside lessons that imbed chronology, knowledge and critical thinking. Teaching follows Mayfield Learning Objectives that have been carefully planned to link with the National Curriculum guidelines and ensure progression of skills across all year groups. History is taught through a variety of topics covering events beyond living memory, significant nationally or globally to more currents events and changes within living memory. We are lucky to live in a city with a rich historical past and local history studies happen in both KS1 and KS2. Y2 during their Castles topic think about why Cambridge once had a castle and visit the site. Y5 study the Tudors and are able to look at the many examples of Tudor architecture.<\/p>\n

In Reception children follow the EYFS framework, outcomes for History come from the area \u2018Understanding the world\u2019:<\/p>\n
