Yorkshire History Forum - Making school history hit home

After the hugely successful launch of the SHP Yorkshire History Forum, booking is now open for our second event, which is taking place at the University of Sheffield. We have another a fantastic spread of workshops for primary and secondary History teachers and this time we’ve added two keynote sessions too. There will also be exhibition stalls and a lunch provided as part of your ticket. It’s a brilliant opportunity to get some high quality professional development, network with other teachers in the region and meet our new Regional Advisors who can support you and your students.

Will there be any refreshments? Yes! Tea/Coffee and Biscuits during the break between workshops and a lunch will be provided.
