Key Stage Two learning project to commemorate the 550th anniversary of the Battle of Barnet
Planned by local historians and experienced teachers, our Key Stage Two Learning Project was designed to commemorate the 550th anniversary of The Battle of Barnet in 2021. Since its initial design, the project has been used in a number of Barnet schools as a part of their local history study.
The project resource consists of 6 lessons, each lesson with a PowerPoint and accompanying resources. We have provided these in an editable format to allow you to tailor the resources to the needs of your learners.
The project is FREE of charge. We just ask you to credit the museum in any learning shared online (@MuseumBarnet on Twitter). Please direct feedback and questions to: [email protected]
