Another meeting for the Young HA in York. We are working with ex- Yorkie (and ex-student) Clare Burgess from the University of Oxford on how historians use sources as evidence. @histassoc @OxfordHistory

We are so sad that our Deputy President and wonderful friend has passed away. Helen Snelson, 1969–2024 a short tribute. history.org.uk/ha-news/categ…

I rarely post but have found the out-pouring of love for dear Helen Snelson so moving. I was privileged to work alongside her as she chaired the @histassoc secondary committee for 6 years. Words can’t do justice to what she meant to us all, but wow! What a legacy she leaves ❤️

Immensely saddened to hear of the passing of Helen Snelson. She has been a huge inspiration to me and many others, as well as a constant source of support and energy.
She would want us to keep working at it, keep accepting each other as part of a ‘broad church’ of teachers.
For those who knew and loved my inspirational friend and colleague, Helen Snelson, it is my sad job to tell you that she died yesterday afternoon. I know how much she meant to so many of you and she was so grateful for your support and love these last few months.

It was a career high to present with @YorkClio on a vital aspect of history, disability history in secondary.
Amazing colleagues @melaniedawnjon1 @HistoryPrimary also shared their expertise on disability history in primary classrooms 2/4

"Rescuing assessment from ‘knowledge-rich gone wrong"
by @Counsell_C is one of the best things I have read on curriculum in a very long time: bit.ly/3OWtwpE. If you're not a member of The Historical Assocation, it's well worth spending £2.49 for a copy.

Our second #LGBTHistoryMonth video with @CitoyenneClaire is now available on YouTube: ow.ly/660s50Qzbbs. A letter from Cyril to Billy provides insights into how LGBTQ+ people described themselves in the past. #historyteacher
Thanks to all the fantastic teachers who have spent the last few months sharing their thoughts with us about the nature of History teaching. Places are still available for the next programme beginning in March. Spread the word!
If you are an ECT who is finding the generic CPD framework a bit bland, a non specialist looking to upskill or a more experienced teacher looking for some inspiration, then the HTDP course might be right for you. There are a few places still available! history.org.uk/secondary/cat…

Finally got round to sharing some thoughts on @HistAssoc Early Career Development Programme. Each module includes a number of videos that can be watched as many times as you want, at a time to suit you. 1/8
@YorkClio History Nerds has just started! 37 students on line learning about how Oxford historians think about sources of evidence.
History ECT's - fancy some subject specific CPD this year?
