In this episode Tracy DW attempts to capture the mood of the time in the event of the death of Queen Elizabeth 2nd and the ascension of King Charles 3rd to the British Throne. Tracy contemplates the in-tray of issues that await the new monarch: healing family rifts, re-branding the monarchy and a declining Commonwealth and how he will find a balance between following in his mother's footsteps and still being able to leave his own mark on British History. 'History is...a matter of fact or perspective?' School Leader and author of the 'Stories to be tolled' poetic narratives, Tracy DW attempts to explore this question through her podcast series. By inviting you to share her learning journey through discussing evidence about a range of historical topics and inviting you the listener to reflect on potential answers, Tracy DW advocates a more global approach to understanding history and presents learning about Britain's colonial past in a way that is thought provoking and engaging.
