This engaging timeline resource supports Year 2 pupils in developing their understanding of chronology and significant individuals through a focus on local history heroes. The slideshow explores key events and contributions linked to the Windrush generation, Nelson Mandela, and the history of Marks & Spencer as a local business with national impact.

Using dual coding strategies (clear visuals and simple text), the resource supports all learners, including those with SEN and EAL, to understand how people and events have shaped communities over time.

Fully editable and adaptable, this timeline is ideal for whole class teaching, retrieval practice, and guided discussion, helping children build confidence with historical vocabulary, sequencing, and making connections between past and present.
