A research project is being carried out by scholars from IOE, UCL’s Faculty of Education and Society and the University of Oxford’s Department of Education.

The goal of the project is to support teaching and learning about the history of the British Empire and its complex – often contested – legacies within British culture, politics and society today. To that end, the project aims to provide a robust and nuanced research evidence-base that can reliably guide future programmes of professional development able to respond directly to the actual needs and experiences of learners, be they teachers or the young people in their classrooms.

They are conducting a national survey and are looking for responses from teachers, particularly those who are working, or have recently worked – in an English secondary education setting. Please do consider completing the survey, or sharing this with anyone who might be interested.
