# History

## History Curriculum

At St. John’s C of E (VA), Cliviger, we strive to secure chronological narrative of the history of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. We consider how people’s lives shaped the nation and gain knowledge and understanding of history around the world. We follow the Learning Challenge Curriculum and adapt these to fit with our own Adventurous Afternoons.
