“59% of history lessons at key stage 3 did not mention women at all” and
“when women were mentioned, the report found they were more often victims than protagonists, with the women murdered by Jack the Ripper more likely to be taught […] than the female code breakers at Bletchley Park”

Thank you to @theguardian.com for covering our report into what’s taught in History lessons at Key Stage 3. Spoiler: mostly men. It’s time to end sexism in schools.
School history lessons minimise the role of women, report finds
Campaigners say key stage 3 curriculum plays to misogny and teaches a ‘false version of the past’

5 years ago 😱 it was Day 2 of school closures and a full lockdown was imminent. It's weird to think back to that period, how stressful it was trying to get online and prepare resources for online learning. I spent an awful lot of time in the park behind my house, was lucky #Teacher5ADay #Reflection
