Welcome new followers!
We are a social enterprise founded in 2019 by young people to address the lack of Black British history in the UK curriculum.

The Normans had a huge impact on British History, creating one of the most iconic fortresses - the Tower of London.
But why did they build the keep and did it have the lasting impact they hoped for?

Looking to pre-record teaching vids, but have limited bandwidth or slow internet?
1) Shoot in lower resolution. Phones often default to HD. Do you need that quality?
2) Run the finished file through Handbrake handbrake.fr/ to efficiently compress it before uploading

Wallis was named Time magazine's Woman of the Year, 1936. 'The most-talked-about, written-about, headlined and interest-compelling person in the world.'
#Onthisday 1936 Edward VIII made history when he publicly announced his abdication as British king in order to marry Wallis Simpson. The royal family and the Church of England did not approve of her. He was succeeded by his brother, George VI (Elizabeth II's dad).
