The project was advertised to Dudley Primary Schools early in the Autumn Term 2011. The maximum number of schools that could be accommodated with the bursary was three, however I was inundated by twelve schools interested in taking part, so schools were chosen on a first come first served basis.

One of the first schools to ask to take part was a school from an area of Cradley very close to where the historical event took place. Two other schools from different areas of Dudley were chosen.

They were:

Colley Lane Primary School, Cradley Year 5.

Church Of The Ascension Primary School, Kingswinford Year 5 and 6.

(Belle Vue Primary School, Wordsley. St. Joseph's RC Primary School Central Dudley.)

Tenterfields Primary School, Halesowen.

Belle Vue and St. Joseph's Primary schools had to pull out of the project due to issues within their own schools, therefore the project was offered to Tenterfields who were the next school on the list.
