The content that was covered during the day related to the GCSE History module \u2018Medicine through Time\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">The day began with sessions\u00a0titled\u00a0\u2018Health and the British Empire\u2019 and \u2018Health and Housing\u2019 which were designed to look at different aspects of health within the UK and abroad during the British Empire. Students also took part in a disaster response exercise that tested their historical knowledge of medical epidemics. Each room contained a different historical disaster including natural, social and life-style induced epidemics. The task was to figure out to create a response to stop the disaster from spreading which students really enjoyed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri;font-size: medium\">Feedback from the day was extremely positive, with many citing the disaster response activity as their favourite session.
