Overview

The ultimate resource for developing a diverse history curriculum in secondary schools. Exclusively based on historical sources from The National Archives, this book is an indispensable tool for history departments to diversify their Key Stage 3 curriculum and uncover important stories from British history that are often missing from textbooks. With downloadable sources, exciting lesson plans, activities and photocopiable resources, this is a must-have book for every humanities department in every secondary school. Allowing for a unique enquiry-based approach for teaching history, this is a flexible resource that will save teachers hours of searching for authentic sources online and ensure that students develop a diverse knowledge of British history. In addition to John Blanke, Euan Lucie-Smith and Princess Sophia Duleep Singh, students will learn about key figures in British history whose names don’t always come up in history lessons. Diverse Histories allows teachers to offer comprehensive and inclusive history lessons that both prepare students for their assessments and enrich their learning.
