Teaching Medieval Women
@TeachMedWomen
TMW is a collaborative project between teachers and academics looking to encourage and support the teaching of medieval women in school History lessons.
In our latest animated short for KS3 History students, @NRHodgson_Hist and @monarchyconf explain 'Corporate Monarchy' (how monarchs relied on those closest to them to help them rule), using the examples of Töregene Khatun and Eleni of Ethiopia. youtube.com/watch?v=MrjKMf…
It’s been an intense 24 hours at #imc2025 — only time I’ve gone the one day route. Lovely to see the folks @archumanities & Laura @routledgehist + enjoyed the craft fair, sessions from Noblewomen Network & Educating Elite Women, chatting @teachmedwomen at the evening roundtable
It’s been a busy, queen-filled week so far! Started with talking about female succession @TeachMedWomen CPD event in Nottingham, then 2 days in Paris discussing the patronage of royal women & celebrating the career of Kathleen Wilson-Chevalier + the Worth exhibition to finish!
Have had a brilliant day at @TeachMedWomen #cpd event. Have come away with new ideas, new knowledge and a burning desire to replan my medieval curriculum Check out their amazing website and resources teachingmedievalwomen.org #historyteacher #cpd
From Æthelflæd to Tamar of Georgia to Salic Law, it's been a fun, busy, history-packed day for the Teaching Medieval Women team, running a CPD day at @NottmTrentUni. Thank you to all who attended and to our speakers for the day ✨ #CPD
To whet your appetite ahead of our CPD Day next Monday, one of our speakers, Steve Illingworth, has written a blog post for TMW: teachingmedievalwomen.org/on-teaching-me…

A queenly couple of days in London this week! Had a lovely CPD session talking about queen’s lands with my Teaching Medieval Women colleagues for the GDST on Friday followed by 1536 on stage today—a play where Anne Boleyn became an interesting plot device! 👸
