Term 3 and 4- Coming to England
In the Spring term, our enquiry questions are: What makes someone inspirational? Do walls protect or divide?
We will explore the text ‘Coming to England’ by Floella Benjamin. We will look at the following.
- The reasons people left the Caribbean to come to England
- The Windrush generation
- The hardships and discrimination that people faced
- To know that Afro-Caribbean people were present in Britian pre-1940.
- To look at the positive impact that migration has had – delving further into the NHS and how the Cowley Road had changed.
- To look at how walls have been used to divide Oxford and the Cutteslowe wall.
- To look at inspirational people who have changed the world such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King.
Planned trips and Visits:
