This article examines how oral history has been represented in the professional journals published in the UK by the Historical Association (HA) for its primary and secondary teacher membership. The framework for analysis was designed to explore specific themes raised in discussions hosted by the Oral History Society (OHS) concerned with promoting the use of oral history in schools. Every issue of the journals Primary History and Teaching History published since September 2007 was reviewed in order to identify whether and how changes to the National Curriculum and to public exam specifications have influenced the scope for, and focus of, history teachers’ use of oral history approaches. Implications are drawn for the ongoing work of the OHS in this area. |
