Abstract

In 2016-17 The National Archives collaborated with the University of Worcester to create a Key Stage 1 resource to tie in with the National Curriculum’s focus on ‘significant people in British history’.

Students on the Graphic Design course’s Children’s Book Design module were given a live brief to create an activity book which focussed on three key people and incorporated archival material. The students were given a shortlist of significant people to choose from as well as biographical information.

The students also visited The National Archives to hear about the curriculum and our requirements. As part of the visit the students also had the opportunity to handle documents related to each of our shortlisted significant people.

After the students submitted their designs, staff at The National Archives and the University of Worcester amalgamated some of them into the final resource.
