Learning Resources

Learning resources created from documents held at the West Sussex Record Office

Transatlantic Slave Trade

The following learning resource, aimed primarily at Key Stage 3 pupils, focuses on the topic of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, and is based on a Valuation of the Channing Estate in South Carolina, America (1814). It is designed to be used under the guidance of a teaching professional, and teachers’ notes are included.

Emigration

We have a range of learning resources on the topic of emigration to the United States, suitable for pupils at KS2, KS3 and Lifelong learners. These are based on a variety of primary and secondary sources available at West Sussex Record Office. They may be used by learners online, and are also available to download and use in the classroom.
