VE and VJ Day anniversaries

As we approach the 80th anniversary of VE and VJ Day, the government has published a collection of educational resources – entitled Our Shared Story – which offers an opportunity for young people to learn about the experiences of those who lived through the Second World War.

Schools can access a free education starter pack. This includes flexible resources suitable for assemblies, classroom discussions, and creative projects.

Visit Our Shared Story to sign up and see how your school or group can take part in commemorating these anniversaries.
