The aim of the Creating History project is to bring history to life, through collections, oral reminiscence, drama and video.

The main school involved is located in a deprived area, situated near to the BICC factory site, once the main employer in the town.

The factory has a long and fascinating history and many ex workers still live in Prescot today.

The topic inspired the children to explore and interpret local history, bringing in national curriculum themes, and also giving then a real sense of their own heritage and citizenship.
