School Days

Project overview

This project teaches children about their own school and locality, both today and in the past. They compare schooling in the Victorian era to their experiences today.

It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogy – Engage, Develop, Innovate, Express – to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.

*This project is part of the Cornerstones History Curriculum and not sold separately.
