Our Intent 

History is all around us. Our aim at Barrow URC Primary School is to instil a love of History, which ignites children’s curiosity about the past within our local area, Britain and the wider world. Through finding out about how and why the world, our country, culture and local community have developed over time, children understand how the past influences the present. History enables our children to develop their research and investigation skills through opportunities to explore a chronological framework of historical events and people. Through our tailored curriculum our children will learn to question evidence, distinguish between interpretation, opinion and fact and use this knowledge to form their own ideas, beliefs and values. Our unique, high-quality history curriculum aims to fulfil the requirements of the National Curriculum in an exciting, inclusive and challenging way.
