History teaching at Southfields equips children from the very start of their educational experience to explore chronology and use the vocabulary needed to interpret the past. Children are supported to frame their historical understanding as part of enquiries which combine the use of a wide range of skills whilst addressing key subject knowledge.
Our history is just that, ours, and is centred on our locality, our community and our children's historical needs that will support them to find their identity in the world based on their cultural, local, national and global history. The curriculum is designed to fill our children with a curiosity for learning about the past.

At Southfields we embrace the fact that every child is different and, therefore, the educational needs of every child are different - this is certainly the case for children with Special Educational Needs.
In terms of what we offer children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities, this is different for every child and it is important to emphasise that, as much as possible, this provision is designed by the relevant Southfields staff members working alongside the child, the child's family and, where necessary, outside agencies* (e.g. a Speech and Language Therapist or an Educational Psychologist).
