Teaching resources for KS3 and GCSE History
How does conflict damage national health?
MSF presents an animation, commissioned in 2018 to look at the topic of conflict and national health. The PowerPoint presentation explains the difficulties and consequences of treating epidemics in conflict zones. It compares two case studies, 100 years apart: influenza in 1918 and Ebola in 2018-20.
This resource is particularly helpful for students of KS3 and GCSE History and includes some past paper exam questions.
Plague
This resource supports understanding of plague in the past by developing knowledge of plague today. It adds a modern-day, scientific context and is designed to be used when teaching about the Black Death, the Great Plague or medieval medicine. It can be used at KS3 or KS4, depending on student’s prior knowledge and/or level of detail required.
