Place Detectives

To be completed by: 15:30


Time: Fri 09 Oct 2026 09:00-15:30 | Venue: Great Victoria Hotel


Our workshop invites KS2 teachers and education professionals to develop their local place knowledge through active enquiry using bespoke teaching resources and the Historic Towns Trust's Bradford Historical Map.

Participants will develop their skills of map and fieldwork as
we explore this beautiful map and city to gather and interpret
evidence about its past. In partnership with Historic England's
Heritage Schools programme, we will also use especially
created school resources to bring the map to life.
The day will also inform participants about other free

Bradford-focussed resources available to schools, to help teach
history and geography in the classroom and on field trips.
This free event is designed to contribute to attendees
continuing professional development. These resources and

copies of the map will be distributed to all attendees, to assist

with teaching local history and geography at KS2 level.

Funding for cover costs is available for schools who meet the criteria. Please email for further details and to book your place.
