The Teacher's Pack

The Walsall Windrush Teacher’s Pack is a flexible, downloadable learning resource created as part of the Walsall Black Sisters Collective Walsall Windrush Sisters Project.

Designed primarily for Key Stage 3 students (Years 7–9), and community organisations, the pack encourages exploration of overlooked stories of African Caribbean women of the Windrush generation through local history, oral testimonies, photographs, and community knowledge.
