Designed specifically for primary-aged pupils, the pack combines whole-school assemblies with classroom resources that allow children to explore important people, events and themes in greater depth.

The pack includes:

6 ready-to-use assemblies – an introduction to Black History Month plus assemblies exploring Mary Seacole, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Nelson Mandela and Louis Armstrong
5 illustrated fact files – one for each featured individual
5 classroom/display posters
12 KS1 discussion prompt cards
12 KS2 discussion prompt cards

Teacher guidance to help you get the most from the resources

The assemblies have been created to encourage discussion, reflection and pupil participation, rather than simply presenting children with a collection of facts. They explore themes including equality, courage, fairness, perseverance, justice and positive change.

The resources can be used as a complete Black History Month programme or individually throughout the year. They are suitable for whole-school assemblies, collective worship, PSHE, history, classroom discussion and wider curriculum work.

The differentiated KS1 and KS2 materials also make it easy to continue conversations started during an assembly back in the classroom.

Ideal for primary schools looking for a substantial, ready-to-use Black History Month resource without having to plan everything from scratch.

All resources are supplied ready to download and use.
