The assembly is suitable to use with KS2 or secondary aged children. The slideshow provides the opportunity to discuss why we might focus on women's history, before moving on to give details on how women's circumstances changed from ancient times to today. There are 10 slides which outline key achievements of 10 different women, from Marie Curie to J K Rowling.
The plan (pdf) gives details about how to use the slideshow. I like to lead assemblies that are interactive and relevant to the children's lives, so the plan gives plenty of opportunity for children to discuss ideas, give feedback and reflect.
The PowerPoint and plan are in the zip file. The PowerPoint is not editable. Please click 'Read Only' to open. Some of the images are only revealed when the PowerPoint is played as a slideshow with the animations.

I only found out the night before I had to do this assembly. It saved me hours of time and worry. All junior children thoroughly engaged in my half hour assembly. Thank you.
Thank you for this. It would have taken me a lot of time to carry out the research needed for this assembly without it.
Yes agree with previous rating, a waste of money if it cannot be edited. It is a shame as some good aspects but not all appropriate for my students so I would have liked to change a few things.
It's good but disappointed i can't edit it. It means i won't be using it unfortunately.
This is a brilliant assembly covering women's history through the ages! Thank you!!!
