Lesson exploring the Conservative election victory in 1951 and the post-war consensus. The lesson starts with a recap snowball of Britain by 1951. Pupils are then introduced to how to approach assessing the value of a source using a source regarding the Attlee legacy by Hugh Dalton. Students are guided through assessing the content and provenance, using the source on the sheet to highlight and annotate. A video then assesses why the Conservatives were successful in 1951 in comparison to Labour under Attlee, leading to a ranking exercise of the reasons for the post-war consensus regarding key policies. The plenary asks students to explain why there was a post-war consensus and why this would help the Conservatives to maintain support from the electorate.
