Programme overview
Our Exploring the Holocaust: Sources and Sites project explores Britain’s relationship to the Holocaust through one-day tours of UK cities. Each visit uses a range of sites in a city to address key issues including: British knowledge of the Holocaust; the experiences and impact of Jewish refugees; the responses of British society to Nazism and the Holocaust; wartime internment; British victims of the Holocaust; and antisemitism in Britain. By linking the Holocaust to local history, we aim to give participants new and engaging ways to approach the subject in their teaching. All participants will be provided with a free booklet of primary sources for use in their teaching and with guidance on how they and their students can carry out their own investigations into Holocaust-related histories in any locality.
The programmes will be delivered by Martin Winstone, Senior Historical Advisor at the Holocaust Educational Trust, Project Historian at the UK Holocaust Memorial.
Please note that these visits will require walking between sites, so please do contact us if you have any concerns.
Who should register?
Registration is invited from primary and secondary trainees and teachers of any subject. We welcome participation from more than one teacher from each school.
How much does it cost?
