I am glad to report that Pam Raven, the officer from the Department for
Education charged with collecting responses to the proposed History National
Curriculum, has agreed to come to a meeting hosted by BASA at Queen Mary
University of London on Monday 25th March in the evening. Further details to
follow soon.
All those with interest in and concern for the history taught our children
are encouraged to attend so that your views can be heard, noted and passed on to
the Government. We shall need to know numbers in advance of the meeting and
whether you will be coming as an individual or representing an organisation.
Again, further details to follow but please mark this important event in your
diaries.
The draft proposals are attached. Apologies for breaking Jiscmail protocol
by having an attachment, but this enables you to have only the history, while
the online version is 200 pages or so long and has all subjects.
