We deliver a high-quality curriculum which is complimented by professional expertise through trips and specialists who study particular periods in time. Through the careful design of our curriculum, children revisit previous learning, through different context, and frequently draw on and compare to new knowledge/skills gained. The celebration of both men and women in history makes the learning relatable to all children and enables them to see the impact that can be made on the world.

At William Penn, we use different scaffolds, such as word banks, stem sentences, practical resources, and adult intervention, we ensure that all children are able to fully engage in our history curriculum.
A key aspect of inclusion in history is developing empathy. Teachers help to model how we empathise with different aspects in the past to help children make those important connections.
