"Power, priests and princes" - a great new resource for schools!

Follow this link to find newly published material from the 2012-13 cohort of York University PGCE students.  Working with staff from English Heritage and York Minster, the students developed resources and lesson plans for learning about power in medieval England using Clifford's Tower and York Minster as a focus. Taking an approach of working from the feature in a building, to story the behind it, and connecting that to a wider theme of power, the result is an online resource free to all schools which would help with those 'arcs of time' for the new KS3 curriculum.  For those local to York, there is the added benefit of local history in there too.  We are hugely grateful to English Heritage and York Minster learning teams for helping to make this project possible.
