Northern Ireland
The films in this resource focus on the period from 1909 until 1922 and look at the background to Ireland, the Easter Rising, the War of Independence, Anglo-Irish Treaty and Irish Civil War. The film referenced in the teachers' notes and with clips embedded in the accompanying Ireland on film - 1916 PowerPoint presentation are:
Michael Collins (1996, 15), Ryan's Daughter (1970, 15), The Wind that Shakes the Barley (2006, 15) and Private Peaceful (2012, 12)
We have developed a large catalogue of educational resources since launching in 2013, and some references and terminology will inevitably have dated as society and language evolves. We are aware of this and will be updating resources when our production schedule allows.
