At Holy Cross, our history curriculum will help pupils gain a clear knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. We will inspire pupils to be curious about the past, and to ask questions, think critically and assess evidence. Pupils will gain an understanding of the complexity of people’s lives, how things have changed over time and how these things interconnect with the challenges of their time.
