Why do some commit genocide and others risk their lives to prevent it?

‘Being Human?’ a free workshop in Chorley on Wednesday 28th September. This workshop will take place in one of our Beacon Schools.

The workshop will explore how you can make these challenging questions accessible to young people in your classroom.

Even before they begin to study the Holocaust many pupils have well formed (but largely inaccurate) ideas about how it happened: strongly-held beliefs about the kinds of people who killed, those who ‘stood-by’, and those who tried to help. This practical workshop models powerful teaching resources that:

engage your pupils, emotionally and intellectually
challenge their thinking
deepen their historical understanding
raise profound questions about the world and about human behaviour
help make your SMSC outstanding

Programme:

4:15 – Registration & Reception (Food & Drink)
4:30 – ‘Being human?’ workshop
