‘Historians connect!’ encourages collaboration and dialogue between academic historians and school history teachers in order to enhance students’ understanding and enjoyment of history.
When they register with ‘historians connect!’, history teachers in primary or secondary schools are paired with an academic historian whose area of expertise best suits their needs. Collaborations can take many different forms.
