Description

History is...a matter of fact or perspective? School Leader and author of the 'Stories to be tolled' poetic narratives, Tracy DW attempts to explore this question through her podcast series. By inviting you to share her learning journey through discussing evidence about a range of historical topics and inviting you the listener to reflect on potential answers, Tracy DW advocates a more global approach to understanding history and presents learning about Britain's colonial past in a way that is thought provoking and engaging.
