High Legh Primary School
Learning For Life
History
Subject Leader - Mrs Cassell
History at High Legh Primary school is not just about learning facts and dates but is an opportunity to explore the past and learn from it. Children are encouraged to be detectives in their lessons to find answers to questions about the past and develop historical enquiry skills such as chronology, comparing and using primary and secondary sources. We want pupils at High Legh to understand how people have lived in the past, compare this to modern life and understand how events from the past have shaped some of the ways we live today.
