MP’s history lesson was very civil
BATTLES and the social effect of the English Civil War was the subject of a history lesson held by Warwick and Leamington MP Chris White this week.
The Conservative MP visited Campion School in Sydenham to gain insight into the challenges faced by teachers when developing lesson plans and engaging with young people.
The lesson focused on the Battle of Edgehill which was fought between Royalist and Parliamentarian forces near Kineton in October 1642.
