Join us on Monday, 26 January, 4pm for the second in a series of online seminars with Dr Becky Hale, who will present the findings from this new study and discuss what they mean for the future of Holocaust education. The session will be chaired by Centre Director, Dr Andy Pearce, with reflections from Professor Tom Lawson, Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Provost at Northumbria University.

In 2016, the UCL Centre for Holocaust Education published the world’s largest study of secondary school students’ knowledge and understanding of the Holocaust. Almost a decade on, schools have faced major challenges, and teachers report that these pressures are shaping how the Holocaust is taught and learned in classrooms today. To understand what has changed, the Centre has conducted a new national study with almost 3,000 students. This latest research forms the Centre’s fourth national study across nearly two decades of pioneering work.
