This page will contain my resources for the GCSE Historic Environment: Whitechapel unit. I am slowly adding resources when I get chance throughout the year.
Jack the Ripper Enquiry Lesson
This is an introduction lesson to the topic of Jack the Ripper.
Students work in groups using a large amount of source material to build a profile of the killer. The sources are varied and in some cases conflicting, so it is up to them to decide which sources to trust.

Attitudes Towards The Police Force
Exam technique
