HA Webinar: Teaching an inclusive primary history curriculum in an urban setting with high levels of deprivation
Teaching inclusive primary history
Event Type: CPD
Takes Place: 7th July 2026
Time: 4pm - 5pm
Venue: Zoom
Description: This practical webinar will showcase how the history curriculum at The Grove Primary School has been carefully shaped to incorporate diverse aspects of history which also dovetail with rich local stories such as those on the impact and legacy of the suffragettes. It will also show how the history curriculum offers pupils a window on other diverse histories beyond their own community while making knowledge accessible to the full ability range in an area of high deprivation. The Grove Primary School was awarded the Historical Association Quality Mark for primary history in 2025. It serves a deprived area in the Leicestershire town of Melton Mowbray. There will be an opportunity to pose questions to the school’s headteacher, Hayley Cheeseman.
