Historic England Heritage Schools – Invite you to a professional Development Day for teachers at the 1620s House & Garden

During this free day of training, you will:

• Receive step-by-step directions on how to conduct a local history study…anywhere.
• Learn how to use your local heritage, including historic sites such as the 1620s House & Garden, as a stimulus to teach a variety of aspects of the National Curriculum.

Delegates will also receive:

• £130 contribution to your school for attending the session.
• A free map pack of Hugglescote and the surrounding area.
• A guided tour of the 1620s House, including an exclusive look at some of the teaching resources used during the school sessions.
