Newhey Community Primary School

At Newhey, we aim to inspire pupils to have a passion for finding out more about the past and how it has impacted our modern lives. We hope to inspire children to think critically about the past through developing their questioning skills, evaluating evidence and examining arguments.

We believe that teaching history will have a profound impact on young learners, as it helps them develop a strong sense of identity, empathy, and critical thinking. By learning about historical events, figures, and cultural changes, children gain a better understanding of the world around them, fostering a deeper appreciation for diversity.
