History

At Hempshill Hall Primary we are historians! We want our children to love history and for them to have no limits to what their aspirations and ambitions can be; for them to grow up wanting to be archivists, museum curators, archaeologists or research analysts.

Through our high-quality history education, we help our children to gain a coherent knowledge and understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. We want to enhance their curiosity and prepare them to ask perceptive questions, think critically, weigh evidence and develop perspective and judgement. We want our children to remember their history lessons in our school, to cherish these memories and embrace the historical opportunities they are presented with.
