Featuring academic input from historians in Birkbeck's Department of History, Classics and Archaeology, participants looked at the changing politics and societies of the period and the range of sources available. With many teachers facing limited time and resources to explore new approaches, particularly beyond narrow exam specifications, the course introduced new figures, global perspectives and interpretations to develop teaching of the period.

The following resources are the final outcomes of the programme, written and trialled by the Teacher Fellows to address the needs of students and teachers in the classroom. If you have any questions about these resources, please contact Maheema Chanrai, the Historical Association Education and Events Officer, at maheema.chanrai@history.org.uk.
