The story of the past; a window to the future.

At Hawthorne our history curriculum is based upon Key Knowledge Progression statements and these are then linked to our REAL approach. Our KKPDs are aspirational and ensure progression of learning. 

To support the concept of chronology in KS2 we teach our periods of history in chronological order with Year 4 studying a stand alone in depth study of the Egyptians.  Our history learning in KS1 focuses on significant people and events; including the local mining history which is very important within the village.   We even have our very own timeline on our staircase!
