In Tonysguboriau, learners develop their own sense of self and of belonging through a growing understanding of identity, heritage and cynefin (ku-nev-in - a welsh word for place or habitat which can be used to describe our heritage, personal history and situation, understanding that this continually affects our thoughts and beliefs). This includes learning about the history of Wales and the World, recognising that this can influence our learners emotionally and spiritually. Through a better understanding of themselves, learners develop their own identity and an awareness of how they can shape the communities in which they live. As a result of this, learners will come to understand that the choices we all make, individually and collectively, can have major impacts on society.

 

By consistently exploring the story of Talbot Green, Rhondda Cynon Taff and Wales, as well as the story of the wider world, pupils can develop an understanding of the complex, pluralistic and diverse nature of societies, now and in the past. These stories are diverse, spanning different communities as well as in particular the stories of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic people. This also supports learners to develop a shared understanding of the diverse history, cultural heritage, ethnic diversity, identities, experiences and perspectives of their local area, Wales and the wider world.

 

Places, communities, and societies evolve over time, experiencing continuity and change that affects, and continues to affect, their own lives and the lives of other people. As they explore this, learners can understand how this evolution is driven by a range of factors, including environmental, economic, social, political and cultural processes, human actions and religious and non-religious beliefs and worldviews. It will also help them build an understanding of what has caused these changes, what the consequences have been and the significance of the changes that have shaped societies at different levels of development.

 

Experiences in Humanities can help learners understand how societies are and have been organised, structured and led, locally, in Wales and in the wider world. Societies are characterised by a range of cultural, linguistic, economic, legal and political norms and values. They both drive and react to changes on a local, national and global scale. Learners can explore the connections between societies in the past and present, in the context of a globalised world. Learners will be encouraged to explore – and develop a tolerant and empathetic understanding of – the varied beliefs, values, traditions and ethics that underpin and shape human society.

 

This aspect of Humanities encourages learners to explore concepts, including chronology, change and continuity, diversity, cause and effect, interconnectedness, community, identity and belonging, authority and governance.
