This very short blogpost is written by Helen Snelson, Chair of Secondary Committee.

Having taught history and worked with beginning history teachers for quite a long time, I realise that sometimes it is useful simply to pass on knowledge of something that people might not have come across. Let me do that now with the teaching website of Professor Terry Haydn, Fellow of the HA. Terry is a very modest person who is undoubtedly one of the people who has helped history teaching to be as strong as it is today. Some of you may have been lucky enough to have done your intial teacher education with Terry at UEA before he retired. Many more of you will have leant on his book (now in its 7th edition) ‘Learning to Teach History in the Secondary School’. Did you know that Terry has been putting together a website for many years? Beginning teachers in particular will find it useful! Start here for lots of wisdom and creative thinking about history teaching.
