Information on the British Monarchy
When working through the Key Stage 2 programme of study for History, children use different sources of information to help them investigate the past. They learn about characteristics of a society. As part of the National Curriculum breadth of study, children in Key Stage 2 study aspects of the histories of England.
This website provides information on The British Monarchy, which is presented as written text, audio and film clips. These provide different sources that children can use to find out more about the British Monarchy. Children can find out about the Queen. This includes her early life, family and significant milestones in her reign.
There is also information on the history of the Monarch, residences and collections that they have, such as the Crown Jewels. Significant events are documented in an images and broadcast section.
This website provides a wealth of information and material to support teachers when planning as well as a useful place for children to find out more when conducting an historical enquiry.
