Seamlessly integrating with the history and citizenship curricula, these digital materials include an assembly presentation and a detailed lesson plan, enriched by the expertise of The Black Curriculum and BlackPoppyRose. 2 UNCOVER UNTOLD STORIES Highlighting the often overlooked stories of Black service personnel, these resources explore their legacy and impact. The materials feature diverse case studies, including the significant, yet under-reported roles of Black women duringWWI, ensuring students gain a comprehensive view of history. 3 FOSTER CRITICAL DISCUSSIONS Designed to spark thoughtful discussions, these resources emphasise the importance of Black HistoryMonth and broader Black history inclusion within education. Reflection questions and insights from currently serving Black soldiers encourage students to connect historical narratives with contemporary conversations on race and diversity. 4 COMMITMENT TO INCLUSION As part of the British Army’s commitment to addressing inequalities, these resources raise awareness about the contributions of Black service personnel, both past and present. They provide educators with valuable tools to start necessary conversations and foster a more inclusive educational environment.
