At Little Gonerby CE Primary Academy, we recognise the importance of providing our children with a chronological understanding of past events. Our pupils will learn about: chronology, cause and effect, similarities and differences, significant events and Hierarchy.
We aim to explore how ancient civilisations have made way for modern history, both in Britain and throughout the world, and how these aspects, alongside Christian teachings, shape how we let our light shine in the modern world.
Intent
● To be able to understand the chronology of British history.
● To be able to link British history with world history, both ancient and more recent.
● To understand the historical importance of hierarchy.

● To be able to explain how history and historical events impact our lives in modern Britain and the world today.
Implementation
