Welcome to Primary Phase History.

The History Curriculum at William Hulme’s Grammar School provides children with the opportunity to build an understanding of periods in the past that have impacted on the way the world is today. Running through the curriculum are three vertical concepts that enable children to make connections between topics, developing their ability to work like a historian. These concepts are: Quest for Knowledge, Power, Empire & Democracy and Community & Family. Embedded within our history curriculum is the teaching of local history; opportunities to make links to local history are made where possible. Each topic also includes both substantive and disciplinary knowledge that will be built upon in subsequent year groups, and other subjects.
