Teacher Training Day 15 July

How do I explain the Holocaust to my students when they are reading online conspiracy theories? How do I appropriately link their learning to the present day when they are asking questions about Israel and Palestine? How can I improve the way my students think critically about historical sources?

If you have found yourself asking these questions, then our creative CPD experience is for you. For just £100 per teacher (inclusive of VAT), join us for a full day of training where we will lead sessions on the curriculum, anti-Jewish racism and Jewish life before and after the Holocaust, and how to teach the Holocaust in a context of online conspiracy theory and distortion. Using the latest historical and pedagogical research, we will equip you with the tools to link the Holocaust to today’s challenges without overwhelming your students.

In addition, you will enjoy unique experiences including:

• Demonstration of the digital Forever Project which we will be offering schools free access to;
• Guided tours of the Holocaust Exhibition with a Senior Educator;
• Meet a Holocaust survivor and access museum artefacts.

“The teaching was engaging, and it helped students to think about the period and links to today. It was a really great experience,” commented a visiting teacher in April.

We can’t wait to welcome you. Book your day now. Drinks and lunch included. If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact [email protected] or call 01623 836627.
