People, places and what happened when, whether at the kitchen table or on a day out.
A free, self-guided course through 13.8 billion years, from the Big Bang to now. History and science as one story, for a child who likes the big picture.
It moves through the universe, the solar system and Earth, life on Earth, humanity and the modern world, with videos and articles along the way. It's written for lifelong learners; there's a separate classroom version, OER Project, for younger secondary students.
Free history resources from the people who look after Stonehenge, Dover Castle and hundreds of other places, sorted by period. Good before, or after, a day out.
The resources library runs from prehistory through the Romans, Anglo-Saxons and Normans, medieval, Tudors and Stuarts, and Victorians to the 20th century, with teachers' kits for individual sites. There's a section for booking educational visits if you're planning a trip.
A big library of history lessons, worksheets and games for KS3, GCSE and A-level, organised by topic and by exam board. Written for teachers, which makes it a solid backbone if you're the one teaching history.
It's been going since 1999 and matches the main GCSE and IGCSE boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, CIE, WJEC and Eduqas), with Scottish (SQA) history too. It's a paid subscription, from £10 a month.
The UK's public art collections in one place: around a million artworks you can search by artist, place or subject. Handy for finding what's hanging in a museum near you.
It covers more than 75,000 artists and 3,500 venues, free to explore, with a Learn section and listings of what's on in UK museums and galleries.
