Curriculum

Peace & Conflict 

Key question: 'How can we understand others and bring about peace?'

Terms 1 & 2

In term 1 and 2, our Global Curriculum theme is Peace and Conflict and we will be considering how conflict can be avoided and resolved. To help understand this, we shall learn more about World War 2 and how this conflict changed the lives of so many people. This will include Key events from WW2, the impact of WW2 on children, the Kindertransport and how Jewish people were treated at this time.

In term two, we will then go on to consider the roles that people have had and can have in bringing peace to the world. At the end of the term, the children will be working in pairs to create projects about Nobel Peace Prize winners, which will be shared with families in a showcase.
