In this lesson, students examine the experiences of Caribbean and commonwealth migrants in Britain after the Second World War. This lesson was designed as part of my scheme of work on modern Britain for the Edexcel migration thematic study, however works particularly well as a standalone lesson and could complement any study of postwar Britain - and could be a good inclusion for a Black History Month programme of study.
It features a fully resourced source worksheets with a range of primary sources and accompanying activities, plus an activity to accompany a short BBC feature on first hand testimony of Windrush era migrants.
LOs:
- To use a range of sources to explain the experiences of Caribbean migrants in Britain
- To use own knowledge to evaluate the typicality of sources
Includes: Empire, Windrush, Colour bar, Black communities Bristol and Brixton, discrimination, Black British History
Please note that the content of this lesson addresses racism and discrimination, and the video features racist language, so must be handled sensitively and is therefore not suitable for below KS4
