Humanities - Opening Worlds

From Autumn 2023, we are very excited to be working with Opening Worlds.

Opening Worlds is a knowledge-rich humanities programme for teaching History, Geography and Religion in Years 3 to 6.  It was first launched in 2019 by Christine Counsell and Steve Mastin, in association with Haringey Education Partnership (HEP).

Yealmpton, together with  the rest of the WEST schools, now collectively follow Opening Worlds and now work together through WEST & Opening Worlds to develop and enrich our children's experiences of history, geography and RE.
