Thankyou for sending you thoughts to Schoolshistory.org.uk

Below you will find a selection of answers to the most frequently asked questions.

- Why do some areas include so many spelling mistakes?

Some sections of the site are used for web site rewrite exercises. In these students have to edit text, identify errors and improve a range of features of the page. In order for this to happen there have to be mistakes. I'm conscious of the fact that these sections aren't labelled as being written for this purpose and will be making some changes to these areas when I get time. However, not all of the mistakes on the site are deliberate and I thank anyone who has taken the time to let me know of another one of my gaffs...

- Can I submit my resources to the site?

Yes, please do! The more resources that teachers can access from this and other websites, the better it is for all of us. If you want to send in resources let me know via the feedback form and I'll make arrangements with you. at the moment this site hosts a range of Schemes of Work, Assessments, Worksheets and several online lessons that have been submitted by users of the site. You will, of course, be fully credited for your work.

- Can I recommend a link or tell you where to find things out about this, that or the other...

This site gets lots of requests of this nature. If you are wanting help with your homework, register on the History Help forum and post your question there. This spreads the load amongst a number of teachers who are willing to help out and means that you are more likely to get the assistance that you need quickly.

If you are an adult looking for teaching resources, or sites relating to something specific I'd recommend registering on the History Teachers' Discussion Forum and posting your request in the Teaching requests and ideas section. This maximises the chances of you getting a rapid and satisfactory conclusion to your search. I will, wherever possible, try and assist any teacher who has contacted me via the feedback form.

- Why don't you have a page on this, that or the other?

The site is far from finished and I suspect that there'll always be areas that could or should be included that won't be. The site development is based on a combination of what I teach and what I want to write about. Once there is sufficient content on the site to cater for the needs of the students I teach - and this is a long way off at the moment - I'll be moving onto things simply for pleasure. If there's an area that you desperately want to be included on the site, please let me know. There might be a site that already caters for the content you are after that I can point you at, or you might just fire the creative juices and get me interested in writing a new unit.
