History
Introduction:
In our school the teaching of history inspires curiosity about the past and how it has shaped the world in which we live today.
Progression of Knowledge & Skills:
History teaching at WCPS focuses on enabling children to think like historians. Our curriculum is planned to ensure historical knowledge is taught alongside the development of subject specific skills including; chronology, interpretations of evidence, changes within a time and across time periods and cause and consequence.

Witney Blankets
We had a visitor on Thursday, Keith Crawford (great, great grandson of Charles Early), who talked about the blanket making process which took place at the historic Witney Blanket Mill and at other sites around Witney. It is very important for younger generations to learn about their local history and to pass this information on to future generations.
