For those KS5 History groups studying modules which focus on Migration, Bristol is the ideal destination for either a 1 or 2- day tour

A visit to Bristol will give KS5 History students the opportunity to understand the impact of migration across the centuries, the experiences of migrants and their impact on society. Expert local guides can take you on a walking tour around the city which focusses on themes such as the Transatlantic trade in enslaved Africans, the 1963 Bristol Bus Boycott & Edward Colston.

Bristol is the ideal city to enlighten and educate students in this hugely topical theme.
