At Alfred Salter, the History Curriculum develops pupils' understanding of historical eras, significant events and the lives of key individuals. Children learn key vocabulary, dates and facts whilst also developing their skills as historians. Through the focus of an enquiry question (such as 'What does the mystery of the empty Saxon grave tell us about Saxon Britain?), children interrogate sources; order events and collect evidence in order to formulate an informed response.
In Key Stage One, we focus on British history, looking at key events - such as the Battle of Hastings and The Great Fire of London - and significant figures - including Francis Drake; Mary Seacole and Emmeline Pankhurst.The pupils also compare and contrast life in the past with life in the present day and have the opportunity to study 'living history' by talking about changes within living memory.

Our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policies apply to all adults, including volunteers, working in or on behalf of our School. We expect everyone working in or for our School to share responsibility for keeping children safe from harm and abuse and report any concerns to one of our DSLs (Please see safeguarding posters displayed in the school building).
As we are currently unable to host tours, we invite you to watch our 'Virtual Tour' and to register for a Zoom Q and A under the 'New Intake' tab. Applications for admission to our Nursery are made directly to the school. Where there is oversubscription, places will be offered in accordance with Southwark's agreed admissions criteria, a copy of which is included in the publication 'Starting Primary School in Southwark 2021/22'.
The pupil premium grant is additional funding given to publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers. It is allocated to children from low-income families who are currently known to be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM), Looked after Children, children adopted from care and Service Forces children.
The government provides funding for primary school sports. The money can only be spent on sport and PE provision in schools and must be used in such a way that all children benefit regardless of their sporting ability. All schools must use the sports premium to fund additional and sustainable improvements for provision of PE and sport, but there is freedom to choose how we choose to spend it.
