An education resource featuring the visit of England’s footballers to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camps in Poland has been released to secondary schools.
It is hoped that the involvement of the footballing stars will help teachers to engage their students in the subject of Holocaust education at key stage 3.
The resource has been put together after members of the England football squad visited the Second World War Nazi concentration camps during their stay in Poland for the 2012 European Championships last summer. Other squad members also visited Schindler’s Factory in Krakow.
The final resource, entitled Introduction to the Holocaust: Footballers Remember, was published this week by the Holocaust Educational Trust in partnership with the Football Association.
