The National Archives
Description
Two schools use the resources available at National Archives. A group of GCSE students visit the centre at Kew for a workshop on the suffragette movement as part of their GCSE history course. Meanwhile, children from Shinewater Primary School in Eastbourne take a virtual visit to the centre. They are studying the Tudors as part of the KS2 history syllabus. In the morning the children use the National Archives website Learning Curve to learn about the court of King Henry VIII and life in Tudor times. In the afternoon they take part in a video conference on the importance of Tudor symbols and how to read Tudor handwriting.
