This great revision video was made to help my students revise the Liberal Reforms and the importance of the introduction of the Old Age Pensions.
I recorded the music with permission from Tony Capstick, whilst he was singing at the Main Street Working Men's Club in Mexborough in 1992. In the song, which is used as background to my slide show on old age prevision before the act, the workhouse and the work of the social reformers to raise the issue, Tony Capstick sings with the help of the audience, a folk song about Lloyd George and Old Age Pensions and how they rescued people from the workhouse.
By the end of the video, its not unusual to have the whole class singing along. You can hear the old cash register in the background.
The aims and objectives of this revision lesson are:
Theme: Liberal Reforms 1906 - 1911
Know: Why did the Liberals introduce the Old Age Pensions?
Understand: What problems faced people who were too old to work before the Liberal Reforms?
Evaluate: Why did the introduction of the Old Age Pension increase the popularity of the Liberals?
WILF: What Am I Looking For?
Identify and describe: Why did the Liberals introduce the Old Age Pensions?
Explain: What problems faced people who were too old to work before the introduction of the Liberal Reforms?
Analyse: why was the introduction of the Old Age Pension Act a smart political move?
