NATIONAL CURRICULUM LINKS

The activities in the Learning resources have the strongest links to the History and Citizenship curriculum at key stage 3. It is also possible to use the subject of the transatlantic slave trade to support local history study units at key stage 2, and to develop the Citizenship lessons at key stage 4. There are opportunities to teach the subject across the curriculum by including Geography, RE and English. The grid indicates the specific programmes of study and schemes of work related to the history
