TEACHERS - cONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Continuing Professional Development

Anti-Slavery International can offer INSET sessions at your school for teachers across the curriculum who wish to integrate teaching about slavery into their subject areas. Teachers will be provided with whole day or twilight sessions including workshops and resources.

We deliver presentations suitable for assemblies or other large group settings (up to 45 minutes), and workshops suitable for the classroom or other small group settings (up to one hour or all day workshops)

Sessions can cover a wide range of issues around slavery

•    How can I ensure effective teaching of the Transatlantic Slave Trade for the History Key Stage 3 curriculum (including guidance on answering difficult questions, use of language and images)

•    What are the legacies of the Transatlantic Slave Trade in a globalised world?

•    How to integrate teaching about the contemporary slavery across curriculum subjects

•    How to integrate a whole school approach to combating slavery

•    What is the link between contemporary slavery and trade?

•    Schools partnership and effective schools linking

Every school that books an INSET session will receive a free copy of the Recovered Histories education pack which provides lesson plans and guidance notes for those teaching the Transatlantic Slave Trade at Key Stage Three History as well as a copy of an exhibition.

•    Sessions can be tailored for teachers in teaching the same subject or across different subjects

•    Suitable for work across the curriculum – especially Geography, Citizenship and PSHE, History and English

•    Advice on sources of support for further work on slavery and human rights work – including local Development Education Centres and  UNESCO Associated Schools

Please note:

The school will be requested to cover travel expenses for schools outside the London area.
