This short film from the BBC Teach series, Migration, presented by David Olusoga, explores the lives of some of the hundreds of Black migrants who were in England during the Tudor period of the 1500s.

Historian David Olusoga investigates evidence of British slave ownership in the 1830s, referring to 40,000 owners with over 800,000 slaves in the Caribbean and elsewhere. The figures are from detailed records of compensation to slave owners paid when slavery was abolished in 1834 across the British Empire.

This film is from the series Scientists and the Scientific Method available on BBC Teach. This film shows how Nicolaus Copernicus - an early astronomer, scientist and priest in Poland - discovered that the sun was at the centre of the solar system. This theory is known as the heliocentric model of the solar system. It was controversial at the time because the accepted wisdom (supported by the church) was that the Earth was at the centre of the universe. In this vlog style film, Nicolas Copernicus compares his ideas with those of Aristotle and Ptolemy, whose celestial model placed a stationary Earth at the centre of the solar system, with the sun and other planets in its orbit. Teacher Notes As a starter to introduce a practical science activity, you could write a simple quiz to encourage pupils to capture the keywords shown in the video. Pupils can write their own definitions from these words using the internet or science dictionaries to improve their scientific vocabulary. To consolidate their knowledge, pupils could make booklets that include key information about the work of Nicolaus Copernicus. They could define the keywords featured in the film, and find five or more pieces of additional pieces of information about the work of the Nicolas Copernicus using books, encyclopedias or the internet.

This film is taken from The Story of World War One with Jeremy Paxman available on BBC Teach. Jeremy Paxman visits the Royal Gunpowder Mills in Essex to tell us about the million women who were employed in making munitions during World War One, and the dangers they faced from explosions and exposure to chemicals. We hear about the huge increase in the quantity and speed of production as a result. We see archive footage of the millions of British women who entered the workforce during World War One, taking part in a social revolution by making munitions and replacing absent men in their jobs. We hear about the huge demand for workers to make the munitions being rapidly used up in this new industrial war. When David Lloyd George became Minister for Munitions in May 1915, he decided to recruit huge numbers of women to make up the shortfall. We see photos and archive footage of women working in factories, fields, as bus conductors and firefighters. Teacher Notes KS3 Use as a starter and example for a research project into local history featuring women in WW1.

This film is from the series The Eichmann Show available on BBC Teach. Due to the sensitive nature of the subject matter, we strongly advise teacher viewing before watching with your pupils. The televised trial of Adolf Eichmann brought to a global audience many of the previously unknown horrors of the Holocaust. On 11th December 1961, Eichmann, sitting impassive and unemotional, was pronounced guilty of all charges against him and sentenced to death. But how far can responsibility for the Holocaust be attributed to Eichmann? Was it right to blame Eichmann for it all? This short film explores the background to the Nazi paranoia about a Jewish conspiracy to take over Germany and Eichmann’s responsibility for the ‘de-Jewification’ of Germany leading up to World War Two. Historian, Professor David Cesarani examines the evidence, analysing how Eichmann presented himself as hapless, with no choice, following orders, and it was not for him to question the instructions of the ‘big bosses’. However, he eventually gave away his personal hatred for the Jewish people under the pressure of cross-examination. The purpose of BBC’s content is to inform, educate and entertain.

This film is from the series Emmeline Pankhurst and the Suffragettes available on BBC Teach. Sally Lindsay examines the life of the leader of the Suffragettes, Emmeline Pankhurst, and traces the people, places, and events that turned her into the leader of the ‘Votes for Women’ campaign group. Formally known as the Women’s Social and Political Union, the Suffragettes were a national organisation that fought for female voting rights when only men had the vote. In interviews with Emmeline’s descendants and expert historians, Sally learns about Emmeline’s early years in industrial Manchester and discovers more about the people and the political and social events that made her believe votes for women could only be won by military means. Teacher Notes Students could examine a number of different images of Emmeline Pankhurst and be asked to think about what each picture tells them about Emmeline Pankhurst. When watching the video students could answer the following questions: What was Emmeline’s childhood like and what impact did this have on her politically? How did her work as a registrar affect her? What was the WSPU and what was her role in it? Why do you think Emmeline Pankhurst was named the woman of the 20th century? Why is she a significant individual in History? Students could then produce a front cover for TIME magazine or write a short interview with Emmeline Pankhurst. At the end of the lesson students could be asked to consider what three key things have they learnt about her today and what surprised them the most about her life?

This films is from the series 100 Years of the Women’s Movement available on BBC Teach. Radio 1 DJ Gemma Cairney traces the history of the women’s movement in Britain and discovers how women fought for equality in the workplace. Gemma meets a one hundred-year-old woman who describes how work opportunities have changed for women over her lifetime. In World War One and World War Two women did men’s jobs. Women were not paid the same as men. In 1968 women working in the Ford Dagenham car factory went on strike for equal pay and to be classed as skilled workers. Gemma meets two women who took part in the Dagenham strike. The Equal Pay Act was passed in 1970 and Gemma asks if women today are equal at work with men. Teacher Notes Give students a series photographs of women over the last 70 years (including suffragettes, CND protestors, Women’s Lib activists and suited businesswomen) and ask what we can deduce about these women.
