The National Schools Project for summer term 2007 will be an inspiring and engaging opportunity for KS3 pupils to explore many of the complex issues surrounding the legacies of the transatlantic slave trade as we commemorate the Bicentenary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act in Britain during 2007.
DfES and USI are working in collaboration during 2007 to produce a new digital-learning resource and corresponding printed pack. The resources will offer schools the opportunity to embed this major element of British history into programmes of study across the curriculum and enter the resulting research for national award.
