Why were so many lives lost in the disaster?
Exploring information and testimony submitted to the British government inquiry into the sinking of Titanic, students investigate why so many passengers and crew lost their lives in the early hours of 15 April 1912. Through close analysis of these documents, students link causes, reaching a conclusion about which factors were most significant.
This workshop supports schools studying challenges to Britain and the wider world, 1901 to the present day.
