History

At Castle Academy, our history curriculum helps children understand their place in the world and make connections between past and present. We encourage our students to think like historians—asking questions, examining evidence, and exploring why events happened as they did.

From Early Years to Year 6, our curriculum builds on key people, places, and events, teaching historical knowledge alongside essential skills. Our children learn to compare historical figures and events to modern life, gaining insights into both the similarities and differences across time.

With the guidance of our dedicated teachers, children develop curiosity, critical thinking, and a love for learning. At Castle Academy, our goal is to equip children with the skills and understanding to become thoughtful, informed members of their communities.
