History
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
“History is about the people who lived in the past. In many ways History is the peoples memory. The way we live today is because of the people and events of yesterday.” We aim to develop a sense of time (chronology) recognising that some things change and some things stay the same, investigate how and why events happen and how they may be linked, explore the use of a variety of sources to find out about the past, (local people, local buildings, Parish Church records, etc.) and provide opportunities to study a variety of kinds of history – local, national, foreign – from ancient civilisations to recent times. |

Geography |

The 'Welly Walk', February 2007 |
Geography explores the relationships between the Earth and its peoples through the study of place, space and environment. It creates a unique bridge between the humanities and the natural sciences and it has a distinctive role in the curriculum. We aim to stimulate pupils’ interest in and wonder at their surroundings; increase pupils’ knowledge and understanding of processes which influence the development of areas and landscapes, e.g. the tropical rain forest areas and desert landscapes and how they are shaped by physical, economic and social factors and give pupils’ real contexts for investigating their environment, e.g. fieldwork in local areas of geographical significance like Dartmoor. |
