Working together, Teacher’s Pet and Historic England aim to provide top quality FREE local history resources to primary schools all over the country. We think that children should be proud of where they live and believe that we can achieve this by helping them understand the history of the place that is local to them. https://tpet.co.uk/local-history Through our collaborative project, we create enquiry based, local history units that are fully resourced and approved by historians. Who are Historic England? Historic England protect, champion and save the places that define who we are and where we’ve come from as a nation. We care passionately about the stories they tell, the ideas they represent and the people who live, work and play among them. At Historic England Education we want every child to be inspired by their local heritage and every teacher to have brilliant resources to use inside and outside the classroom. Our Heritage Schools programme aims to help school children develop an understanding of their local heritage and its significance to make sure that: • Children develop a sense of pride in where they live • Children understand their local heritage and how it relates to the national story • Teachers are more confident in making effective use of local heritage resources in delivering the curriculum • Local historic context is embedded in the school's curriculum • Heritage providers are more connected to the needs of local schools • Parents are engaged in their children's learning • Communities are more deeply involved in the life of the school https://tpet.co.uk/local-history www.historicengland.org.uk
