Moor Allerton Hall Primary School

At MAHPS, our History curriculum is designed to ignite curiosity and help pupils understand how the past has shaped our world today. We introduce key concepts such as power, invasion, civilization, and trade, providing a solid foundation for future learning. Using the Kapow Primary scheme, our engaging lessons guide pupils to investigate history as historians do, focusing on chronology to build a clear ‘mental timeline.’ From reflecting on personal histories in EYFS to exploring broader historical contexts in Key Stage 2, our curriculum is coherent, progressive, and aligned with national standards and the latest educational research. We aim to inspire a lifelong interest in history while fostering informed and engaged global citizens.
