Students recall (starter and wilf 1) knowledge on early public health and the Public Health Act (taught previously) before building on this with knowledge about the Great Stink and three key acts that can be used as evidence the government abandoned their Laissez-Faire ideology. This leads to a tiered apply task in which students can connect their knowledge coherently in response to a 12 mark question.
