Lesson(s) begin by looking at the impact of Chadwick’s work on public health in Britain and look at the Cholera epidemics of the 1800s. This buids in to examine the impact of the work of John Snow (video and individual work) and students learn why this still didn’t result in widespread improvement in public health.
Lesson then looks at the impact of the ‘Great Stink’ and (via video and textbook) the work of Joseph Bazalgette during the ‘Great Clean up’.
Concludes by introducing the Second Public Health Act of 1875.
Lesson is presented in an easy-to-use style and Powerpoint is self-explanatory. Slides can be printed for revision (I often get pupils to stick them into their books)
Lesson makes use of AQA Medicine and Health Through Time: An SHP Development Study (SHPS)
