This fun and original assembly is designed to teach children all about Black History Month, including: -What Black History Month is; -Why we have Black History Month; -What life has been like for Black British people in the past and what it is like today; -Providing examples of influential Black British people and what they have achieved; -How Black History Month is celebrated. The slides are visually-engaging and well-presented, and the subject matter is tailored to the interests and needs of young people. It includes links to well-chosen videos to emphasise/ reinforce key points, in addition to song suggestions. There is enough here for a 30-35 minute assembly (it is 21 slides long), but of course you can cut bits out/ tailor to your own individual needs. No further resources are required, everything that you need to present the assembly is included. I would say that the assembly is ideally pitched at KS2, but both KS3 and KS1 would be able to access it with only minor vocabulary/ language adaptations. The slides are fairly self-explanatory, but I’ve included guidance notes to assist the speaker. Hope that you find this useful!

Celebrate Black History Month 2026 with this complete whole-school assembly resource based on the theme Honouring Our Communities. This professionally designed assembly explores Black British history, community, contribution, recognition and the people whose actions help shape and strengthen society. Pupils are encouraged to look beyond fame and consider why everyday service, leadership, creativity, courage and commitment also deserve to be recognised. The assembly introduces Black History Month before exploring the idea that Black history is part of British history. Pupils encounter figures including John Blanke, Mary Seacole, Walter Tull and Claudia Jones before considering the Black people who continue to contribute to communities across Britain today. Throughout the assembly, carefully structured questions encourage pupils to think more deeply about whose stories are remembered, why some contributions receive greater recognition than others, and whether somebody needs to be famous to make a meaningful difference. The resource concludes with a clear whole-school challenge based around three ideas: NOTICE who contributes. LEARN the stories behind those contributions. RECOGNISE why they matter. This resource includes: • Full Black History Month 2026 assembly PowerPoint • Approximately 28 professionally designed slides • Complete 20–25 minute assembly script • Teacher guidance and delivery support • Community Honour follow-up activity • Community Honour nomination task • Pupil reflection opportunities • Tutor-time discussion prompts • Whole-school follow-up challenge • Key vocabulary and discussion questions • Opportunities for KS2, KS3 and KS4 adaptation Topics explored include: • Black History Month • Honouring Our Communities • Black British history • John Blanke • Mary Seacole • Walter Tull • Claudia Jones • community and belonging • contribution and service • leadership and courage • recognition and representation • famous and less-visible contributions • modern Black British communities • individual and collective impact The assembly has been designed to move beyond a simple collection of famous biographies. Instead, pupils are encouraged to consider what contribution actually means and recognise that history is also shaped by teachers, healthcare workers, volunteers, artists, coaches, carers, leaders, organisers and other people whose work may never make national headlines.
