Is it possible to teach history at school without its jingoistic overtones and nation affirming narrative? Is there a point in teaching children with Muslim or Caribbean backgrounds about Tudor England or Roman Britain? Why the school's curriculum is so obsessed with Nazism but avoids talking about imperial Britain? How is history taught in New Zealand or Latin America? We spoke to an experienced GCSE and A-Level teacher, Michael Haddock, about all this and about Brexit plus those individual narratives hidden in our history text books. With Juan Toledo and André López Turner
