Classics at Cambridge isn't just studied as a period in the past, but looks at how classical culture, language and philosophy have affected the history of Western civilisation right up to the present day. The Faculty of Classics is one of the most dynamic of its kind, with an exceptional reputation for teaching and research. Our course encompasses the history, culture, archaeology, art, philosophy and linguistics of classical antiquity and the study of original texts and artefacts.

This resource can be used either as a slideshow when delivering lessons on design periods/movements and introducing students to the more well known designers. I have printed each slide, laminated them on put them up in the workshop/graphics room as a permanent display for reference. As a starter I set students questions about each product design and they have to research and find he answers by looking at each printed slide. Can be used to start s design task by asking students to develop ideas using slides as inspiration or starting point.

Some lessons based on OCR Classics GCSE but can easily be adapted for KS3 as well

A useful start for Year 8 (and even Year 7) pupils into Classical music. The task is a comprehension with the document - students answer questions based on picking out information from within the comprehension. Pupils then summarise information from the questions to come up with 5 most important points about the Classical era. This is a document I'd re-worded from Wikipedia, adding and omitting bits where I saw fit. There are all kinds of things that can be added on such as more about instrument inventions, more composers, pieces of music etc. Any feedback would be great, thanks!
