Humanities 2020 – NAPE 029
National Association for Primary Education are pleased to support:
Join us in our campaign to restore the humanities – History, Geography, RE and Citizenship to their rightful place in the primary curriculum.
We believe the humanities play a key part in a broad and balanced school curriculum. They have a crucial role in helping children to:
- explore the purpose & meaning of their lives,
- build their sense of identity & self-worth and
- develop the values that will help them to become active, inclusive and thoughtful citizens.
Starting secondary school – NAPE 028
One of the biggest concerns for Year 6 children now that SATs are out of the way is moving on to their next school. They will have often found themselves treated as responsible members of their current school, Leaders in many different areas, but for many it will be back to square one and certainly a big drop down the pecking order. Transition programmes and visits to the new school will help some of these worries to be confronted, but they are likely to bring new challenges which become bigger in their imaginations. Many of their concerns are addressed in the latest addition to the BBC Bitesize website here: www.bbc.co.uk/startingsecondaryschool
A lively friendly place to ask all those questions which are burning to be raised.
