One for the history books! We’re presenting Horrible Histories with a BAFTA Special Award in recognition of the show’s extraordinary impact and the joy it’s brought people of all ages throughout the incredible fifteen years it has graced our screens. BAFTA Young Presenter Jeriah Kibusi stopped by Henry VIII’s dressing room to deliver the good news ahead of the Horrible Histories team receiving the award at a special presentation next month – though that didn’t stop Henry practicing his acceptance speech! 👑

Despite a tough year, school wise there were some wins that we’ll be moving forward with/adapting for 2024/2025. 🧵1/5 1. Clip sheet closed Q’s: increased student engagement, no excuse for limited notes. Ability to pause/discuss. Provided a clear note structure. #historyteacher
