About this Event
The Teaching Medieval Women CPD day is intended as a forum to share experiences of teaching, to showcase new examples of medieval women with presentations from academics and teachers, and to collaborate on and co-produce materials to understand how we can best to support the teaching of this topic and attract and engage a new generation of students.
Teaching Medieval Women is part of a wider project which through collaboration between teachers and academics seeks to bring new research on the lives of medieval women into the teaching of medieval history at school. This project was borne out of a shared realisation that women are often under-represented in many of the medieval history classes taught at, especially, KS3 and further up the curriculum as well. We hope to remedy this by bringing together teachers and academics to share our respective knowledge and expertise and to co-create a variety of materials that are attractive, engaging - and free - to use in the classroom.
The CPD day will include:
- Talks by leading academics on different examples of medieval women
- Discussion panels on how to incorporate materials into teaching and the curriculum review
- Resource design workshops
- A complimentary lunch and teas and coffees throughout the day
Confirmed speakers for the event on 25 June include:
- Dr Natasha Hodgson (Nottingham Trent University)

- Dr Charlotte May (University of Nottingham, Manuscripts and Special Collections)
