Calling all London secondary schools 📣
We're currently looking to partner with more employing schools on our Mathematics and Secondary Mathematics Teacher Degree Apprenticeship BSc.
Looking forward to the @1972shp.bsky.social conference in July, when @marnieh-w.bsky.social will be giving a keynote. Thanks to @danlyndon.bsky.social and Park View for hosting and to the presenters and audience for the sharing & discussion. A truly inspiring event! 4
Two images of a robot historian teaching young people made by AI. In the second image it was tasked to make the historian ‘British’.
It was also a really powerful opportunity to reflect on how history education can help build reflective and critical awareness of the ‘decision’ (to borrow @marnieh-w.bsky.social‘s marvellous choice of word) at the heart of all history-making, human and artificial. 3
It was, 1st, so very @1972shp.bsky.social. The SHP is about collaborative curriculum development *4* the history education community, *with* & *by* the history education community. The event was collaboratively presented by primary, university, & 2ndary history teachers in dialogue with the room. 2
What a great event @danlyndon.bsky.social hosted yesterday for @1972shp.bsky.social at Park View School with @marnieh-w.bsky.social and teacher colleagues on AI and history. 1

It's my last day in My Lai and I just met a survivor who has never been interviewed before. He showed me where his family was buried in a makeshift grave right after the American left in the afternoon of March 16, 1968. Unlike most of the victims, they have not been moved to a proper grave.

SHP Curriculum PATHS Spring Update: What's happening with the National Curriculum for History and how can we shape things going forwards? Some thoughts on why communities like ours are more important now than ever #historyteacher #CPATHS

I'd certainly recommend it 4 history teachers who have 2 think of history in the round (historical culture, the presence of the past in contemporary life, & so on). It's entire A-Zs (& not just streets) ahead of Carr's What is History & other 'tomes' that R often thought 2 help us think history.
I guess that's a question 4 the author & publisher. I'm pleased there's 1 - has fully updated scholarship (there's so much brilliant theory of history out there just now) & it's contemporary examples resonate. He's changed his mind on relations 2 the past also (some are recessive in this edition).

I really enjoyed reading it c.2004/5. I think there were subsequent editions. A lot to catch up on in a new edition, I expect.
Today we are launching the 2026 SHP Summer Conference, which will be taking place July 10-12 at Leeds Trinity. This year, due to the huge increase in proposals for workshops, we have extended our offer to 46 wonderful workshops for primary and secondary teachers of history (see below for a taster!
Chippendale's Stonehenge Complete (2004) is great on this. I've a short piece on pedagogic uses of the history of Stonehenge interpretation here from 2007 - www.history.org.uk/publications... 2/2
Love how the history of Stonehenge (principally the appreciation that it was part of a wider 'sacred landscape') was revolutionized in the 20th century through the unintended effects of technology developed for war (aerial reconnaissance photography, radio carbon dating). 1/2

The image shows the Thornborough Henges, a prehistoric monument complex located in North Yorkshire. Often called the "Stonehenge of the North," it consists of three giant circular earthworks, each over 200 metres in diameter. The structures date from the Neolithic and Early Bronze Age, approximately 3500 to 2500 BC. They were part of a "ritual landscape" linked by walkways and likely used for ceremonies. The site is now managed by English Heritage and is open to the public. Image: Natural England CC BY-NC-ND 2.0
