BBC Teach Class Clips - Why did Britain need a better road network? - Worksheet to support the BBC video In the early 1700s Britain’s road networks were simply not up to the task of moving the goods around the country which needed to be moved. Most of the roads were ancient, potholed and too small for modern business to be carried out. As Britain began to industrialise, this lack of transport made it very difficult to transport raw materials like coal or cotton. It was especially difficult for a businessman like Josiah Wedgwood, who reckoned that he sometimes lost one third of his shipments of pottery on Britain’s terrible roads. In 1706 Parliament passed the Turnpike Act which allowed private road builders to build new roads and charge tolls for using them. It was a first, important step towards the road transport network we know in Britain today. This short film is from the BBC series, Why the Industrial Revolution Happened Here.

BBC Teach Class Clips-History KS3 / KS4: The Barbados Slave Code - Worksheet to support the Olusoga extract Historian David Olusoga investigates the spread of the Barbados Slave Code across British colonies during the eighteenth century and its social and economic impact. He begins his narrative with the English settlement of Barbados in 1627 which resulted decades later in a lucrative sugar cane industry covering 40% of the island and cultivated by enslaved Africans. The clip emphasises the harsh and racist provisions of the code and its role in creating a slave society and economy controlled by the use of severe violence. British records quote Africans as being referred to as ‘heathenish’ and ‘brutal’.
