At Townfield Primary School, we follow the statutory content of the National Curriculum for History, adapting it to meet the needs of our pupils. We are committed to delivering exciting lessons, which engage all our pupils, including those who have SEN and/or disabilities and those who are disadvantaged, inspiring them to find out more about the past.
We endeavour, where possible, to study our local history, exploring how it fits into and has shaped our national history. Children also experience history through field trips to places, such as The Grosvenor Museum in Chester and World Museum in Liverpool, to bring their history learning to life and to add to their 'cultural capital'.

Currently TPS is a Single Academy Trust and soon we will join Rainbow Education becoming part of their MAT, which means we will become part of a Trust containing more than one academy. Despite challenges faced by TPS, school is in a strong position with fantastic staff and children.
Joining Rainbow Education will not only bring fantastic opportunities for our children and school, but also mean we can share our wealth of skills and knowledge with other schools in the MAT.In reality, any changes will occur in the background so children, parents, carers and the wider school community will not be aware of any changes in school.

Please see our Equality Policy Statement and Equality Information & Data for further information. We aim to be a close school community where everyone is treated fairly and with respect.
