I created this set of four lessons for GCSE students in Manchester looking to compare two different areas of the city for Edexcel B Paper 2: Evolving Human Landscape.
The lessons look at Cheetham Hill and Ancoats, two neighbourhoods that sit in close proximity to each other and to the city centre. They are contrasted as examples of when investment into regeneration occurs in one neighbourhood and not the other. The lessons also explore how the two areas, both with rich migration histories, took different trajectories in the 20th and 21st centuries.
For anyone looking to explore socioeconomic differences in Manchester in a contemporary context, these lessons provide opportunities for thoughtful discussion , data analysis and improved literacy.
Lesson 1: the shared history of Cheetham Hill and Ancoats
Lesson 2: Demographic change in Cheetham Hill and Ancoats
Lesson 3: Deindustrialisation in Cheetham Hill and Ancoats
Lesson 4: Regeneration in Ancoats, Neglect in Cheetham Hill
