SHP Understanding has been part of the SHP CPD offer since 2020. The aim of SHP Understanding events is to connect teachers, historians, social activists and others to inform and reshape our teaching of key topic areas in the curriculum. The aim of all SHP Understanding sessions is to empower teachers to consider the needs of young people studying particular historical topics today and to involve young people in the live historical issues which continue to shape our world.
