Join the Museum of London their free teacher events introducing new teaching resources covering a more diverse and inclusive history of the Great Fire of London.
These resources are the product of an exciting research project, Reimagining the Restoration.
Reimagining the Restoration is a project using original research on Samuel Pepys’s diary to present new perspectives on life in the 17th century.
Together, the Museum of London and the University of Leicester have created teaching resources which feature children, women, people of colour, and deaf people at the time of the Great Fire of London. The project aims to give teachers new ways to teach the Great Fire, give learners a sense of place and ownership over their history, and to spark interest in the 17th century.
