AQA 7042 - Unit 6 - extent of multiculturalism in Britain by 2007 two lessons

Two lesson sequence exploring the extent of multiculturalism in Britain by 2007.
The lesson starts with a video focusing on the legacy of the murder of Stephen Lawrence, asking students what they can infer about equality in the 1990s. Using the first side of the hand out students create a table showing progress/tensions re. integration, leading on to a report on the 7/7 bombings and the impact. A clip of a speech by David Cameron promotes discussion around the idea that ‘multiculturalism’ was dead by this point. Students then categorise the responses to the 7/7 bombings into positive and negative, focusing on the long term impact on race relations. A judgement line plenary allows students to show the extent of their agreement to the idea that Britain was a muticultural society by 2007, leading to a 10 mark source practice homework question on community relations.
