This unit introduces pupils to aspects of the political history of Ireland in the twentieth century. It considers the causes of the partition of Ireland, and how key events in Irish history have been interpreted and represented in different ways by the two communities. The reasons for the outbreak of violence in 1968-9 and the subsequent peace moves are also examined.
This unit is expected to take 8-11 hours. There is scope to adjust some of the teaching activities to take account of time constraints in different schools.
