Corporate lesson sequences

Finding the time to research, plan and produce thoughtful, appropriately demanding and well crafted sequences of lessons is a challenge. At the Historical Association we are supporting our corporate members through the creation of brand new fully-resourced lesson sequences linked to lessons or sequences that have been featured in our journal Teaching History. Each term we will be adding a new fully resourced sequence of lessons that corporate members can trust to have been researched and produced to the highest standards from a trusted body. Sequences will link to specific Key Stage 3-5 topics, but provide fresh insights. The first lesson of each sequence is open to all members – find out how you can upgrade to corporate membership to gain access to the full sequences here.
