Local History: Education
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, pursuant to the Answer of 13 June 2025 to Question 57447 on Local History: Education, how (a) local historians, (b) museums and (c) heritage organisations can contribute to (i) curriculum development and (ii) enrichment in local history education.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
Schools determine which organisations they work with to support the teaching of local history. This can include local historians, museums and heritage organisations.
The Curriculum and Assessment Review carried out extensive engagement with the education sector, including teachers, lecturers, leaders, civil society organisations, students and parents, through its Call for Evidence and roundtable events. This provided an opportunity for bodies and individuals with an interest in local history to contribute to the Review.
