Commemorate the centenary of the end of the First World War with this updated resource for 11- to 16-year-olds linked to History and Citizenship.

Learners will search the digitised archive of First World War volunteers to find real examples of the people who helped during the war. They will explore the different aspects of this volunteer work and protections available for those affected by war, and will learn about humanitarianism in action. They will also apply this learning to their own lives and modern-day situations.

Learners will:

  • increase their awareness of First World War volunteers in a voluntary aid detachment (VAD)
  • discuss the people who volunteered, what they did and what drove them to help
  • consider how the First World War helped to empower women
  • find out about the rules protecting people during the First World War, and international humanitarian law today
  • explore the subject of refugees during the war and in the modern day
  • consider methods of raising funds in order to help others
  • apply this knowledge to their own lives and the world around them.
