On this page, you will find everything you need to know about History at Leatherhead Trinity.

At Leatherhead Trinity, our History curriculum—powered by the Kapow Primary scheme—is designed to ignite a lifelong curiosity about the past. We provide all children with a rich, chronological understanding of Britain’s history and the remarkable stories of the wider world. By utilizing Kapow’s inquiry-based approach, we empower our pupils to become mini-historians who don’t just learn facts, but actively ask thought-provoking questions, think critically, and weigh evidence.

Our lessons are vibrant spaces where children learn to sift through complex arguments, develop their own perspectives, and exercise informed judgment. Through this exploration, they begin to grasp the fascinating complexity of human lives, the inevitable process of change, and the rich diversity of societies. History at Leatherhead Trinity isn't just about the past; it’s a tool for children to understand the relationships between different groups and to forge their own identity amidst the challenges of the modern world.

We believe that history should be felt and experienced, not just read from a page. To make learning truly unforgettable, we bring the past to life through immersive museum visits, expert-led workshops, and dynamic, practical lessons that capture the imagination and ensure every child at Leatherhead Trinity develops a deep, lasting connection to the stories that shaped our world.
