St Thomas a Becket Catholic Primary School

History

In History, pupils will have to develop a secure knowledge and understanding of British local and world history, establishing a clear understanding of historical terms of change, cause, similarity and significance.

Geography

The new curriculum for Geography will ensure that all pupils develop a contextual knowledge of place, seas and oceans including defining physical and human characteristics. Throughout Key Stage 2 pupils should extend their knowledge and understanding beyond the local area to include the United Kingdom and Europe, North and South America. This will include the location and characteristics of a range of the world’s most significant human and physical features. They should develop their use of geographical tools and skills to enhance their locational and place knowledge.
