--- title: "History" url: "https://selwood-academy.schudio.com/curriculum/subjects/history" school: "Selwood Academy" --- # History ### History Subject Vision We are all **Historians** ### **Curiosity Investigate Understand** History fires pupils' curiosity to ask questions and know more about Britain's past and that of the wider world. At Selwood we encourage children to develop an understanding of British, European and World History. The topics we cover are sequenced chronologically from pre-1066 to 1945. History helps to develop a range of investigation and problem-solving skills that help pupils to become better historians. We focus on how people's lives have shaped this nation and how Britain has influenced and been influenced by the world. By doing so pupils begin to understand their place in the world by studying where we have come from. ### Curriculum Map ###
