Why Schools & Universities Choose Our Heritage Walks
Our walks are built on original research, not textbook summaries. Students engage directly with historical sites, examine primary sources and construct their own understanding — developing the analytical thinking skills that transfer across every subject.

Black Tudors
Our Black Tudors walks uncover the lives of Africans who lived, worked and thrived in Tudor England — free people, merchants, musicians and skilled workers whose stories have been hidden in plain sight for 500 years. Using parish records, court documents and guild archives, we bring forgotten figures back to life in the streets where they actually walked. Available across Westminster, Southwark and the City of London. To book, email contact@morecurricular.co.uk or call 020 3603 7729.
Tudor Queens & Royalty
Tudor history is full of powerful women whose stories have been reduced to caricature. Our Tudor Queens walks restore complexity, agency and humanity to the women who shaped sixteenth-century England — from England's first queen regnant to the six wives whose lives were defined by politics as much as by marriage.
Crown and Cross: The History of Catholics in Britain
The Tudor Reformation tore England apart. Our Crown and Cross walk traces the religious upheaval, persecution and resilience of Catholic communities from Henry VIII's break with Rome to the recusant families who kept the faith alive in secret. A walk that explores how faith, power and identity became inseparable in Tudor and post-Tudor Britain.
The Origins & History of the East India Company
Chartered by Elizabeth I in 1600, the East India Company began as a group of London merchants seeking spice trade profits and became one of the most powerful — and destructive — commercial organisations in history. Our East India Company walks trace that journey from its Tudor origins in the City of London to its global reach and consequences.
Tudor Kids Adventure for Primary Schools
Bring Tudor history to life for your primary school students with our interactive Tudor Kids Adventure walk — inspired by Claire Linney's award-winning book Time Tub Travellers and the Silk Thief. Students aged 8–11 follow clues, solve mysteries and discover the hidden stories of Black Tudors in London's historic streets. Curriculum-linked to History, English and PSHE.
Notting Hill Heritage Walks for GCSE History
Our Notting Hill Heritage Walks support the Pearson Edexcel GCSE (9–1) History Paper 1 Historic Environment unit on Migrants in Britain c800–present and Notting Hill c1948–c1970, worth 10% of the total GCSE. Students learn on location in the streets where the Windrush generation settled, where the 1958 riots took place and created the Caribbean Carnival.
