This October, we are proud to support schools in marking Black History Month 2025 with a brand-new, practical classroom resource and an inspiring student event. 

This year’s Black History Month theme encourages students to reflect on the resilience and leadership of Black individuals across history and today. 

We have created resources designed to support schools in Hertfordshire and beyond by: 

  • Supporting curriculum integration across primary and secondary
  • Offering a three-step approach to embedding Black history: Learn, Implement and Embed
  • Highlighting local and national figures, including Walter Tull, Claudia Jones, and Olive Morris
  • Providing assembly, lesson, and enrichment ideas for use across the academic year. 

Download our 2025 resources via The Grid and access those from previous years.

We're inviting schools to bring a student group from Years 5–13 to our live Big Talk event on Wednesday 15 October 2025 at The Nobel School, Stevenage where Kit will be exploring identity, community, and what it means to “stand firm in power and pride.”
