This lesson has been designed primarily for A Level students studying Lord Liverpool’s ministry, but can also be used at GCSE. This resource focuses on the first half of Lord Liverpool’s ministry, when the government faced huge economic problems caused by the Industrial Revolution, the Corn Laws and the fall out from end of the war with France. When teaching this topic, it is crucial to focus on the price of bread as this later links with Peel’s repeal of the Corn Laws at the height of Chartism when the rest of Europe fell into revolution in 1848. It is also important to focus on how these protesters were controlled or (policed) as this links into other reforms.
This lesson looks at Luddism, the Spa field Riots, the March of the Blanketeers, the Pentrich Rising, The Peterloo Massacre, the Cato Street Conspiracy and the Queen Caroline Affair. At the end of each section, there is a separate slide on both the local and national government response to the protesters. It is important to some syllabuses to differentiate between the two. At the bottom of each relevant slide is a continuum for students to evaluate both the threat level posed by the protesters and the government response. At the end of the PowerPoint, I have also included a table for students to use to help summarise what they have learnt, this is particularly useful at GCSE.
When you purchase this resources you will be able to download a PowerPoint with 36 slides on Protesters against Lord Liverpool’s government from 1815 - 1821. The PowerPoint includes aims, objectives, activities, information slides, diagrams, primary and secondary sources to help students evaluate the threat level posed by the protesters and the response of both local and nation government. For more information, please see the detailed preview.
The aims and objectives for these resources are as follows:
Theme: Protest and Reform 1815 - 1834
Know: Who Protested and why from 1815 - 1821?
Understand: How did the government respond to these protesters on a local and national level?
Evaluate: How much of a threat did each group of protesters pose?
Skills: Cause, Consequence & Significance
