It’s time to tell the story of the Empire from the perspectives of
peoples who were colonised.
Understand the nuances of the British Empire in different periods and
places as you examine this complex, controversial history with respect
and rigour ⸀
a Explore differing experiences around the world ⸀ This book has more
breadth and depth than any other, helping pupils to consider what
the Empire meant for people in Ireland, America, the Caribbean,
India, China, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, Iraq, Palestine and Britain,
across a period of over 500 years
a Look at the Empire like a real historian ⸀ Influenced by recent
historical scholarship, we give agency to the indigenous people
of the colonies and tell their stories for the first time in a school
textbook ⸀ By focusing on consequences or experiences and asking
better questions, we move far away from the traditional balance
sheet approach
