Product reviews for 40 Ways to Diversify the History Curriculum

An extremely useful toolkit to use as a starting point to help diversify, reimagine and decolonise the history curriculum. While shedding light on experiences of the working class, women, Black and LGBT+ communities, it provides thoughtful suggestions on how educators can teach key historical events through an alternative lens.

Each chapter includes the background context to a history once forgotten and a viewpoint never seen. Online resources are also available to support chapters on African kingdoms, migration, and the empire and slavery. It encourages educators to challenge undermining notions of incivility and backwardness when it comes to African civilisation and culture.

A great resource for teachers to deepen, enlighten and enrich their history lessons from key stage 2 upwards.
