History

At Trewirgie our History curriculum is planned using the National Curriculum objectives but is developed by us specifically for our children in our locality. Our curriculum aims to provide engaging and investigative experiences where children are active participators in their learning. Children will be encouraged to explore and question as they learn and make historical connections to their own lives and the location in which they live. Children will make sense of prominent similarities and differences of the lives of people and relevant places throughout history. We strive to equip our children with the historical knowledge and enquiry skills they require through a range of bespoke units of learning. Our children will explore the key concept of History itself through relevant learning opportunities focused on their own lives, their families and their locality. The location of our school is key to our History curriculum and is reflected in our units of learning, which focus initially on Redruth before extending out to Cornwall and beyond.
