  All families have secrets but the facts requiring secrecy change with time. Nowadays a lesbian partnership, a "bastard" son, or a criminal grandfather might be of little or no consequence but could have unraveled a family at an earlier moment in history. Margaret K. Nelson is interested in how families keep secrets from each other and from outsiders when to do otherwise would risk eliciting not only embarrassment or discomfort, but profound shame and, in some cases, danger. Drawing on over 150 memoirs describing childhoods in the period between the aftermath of World War II and the 1960s, Nelson highlights the importance of history in creating family secrets and demonstrates the use of personal stories to understand how people make sense of themselves and their social worlds. 
   
   
   
  Keeping Family Secrets uncovers hidden stories of same-sex attraction among boys, unwed pregnancies among teenage girls, the institutionalization of children with mental and physical disabilities, participation in left-wing political activities, adoption, and Jewish ancestry. The members of ordinary families kept these issues secret to hide the disconnect between the reality of their own family and the prevailing ideals of what a family should be. Keeping Family Secrets sheds light not only on decades-old secrets but pushes us to confront what secrets our families keep today.

  Written by Richard Bustin, What are we Teaching?Powerful knowledge and a capabilities curriculum offers a fresh perspective on curriculum design, arguing that subjects are key to enabling young people to develop the powerful knowledge needed to flourish in a complex modern world. Moving ideas beyond the 'traditional vs progressive' debates that have dominated education discourse, Richard Bustin challenges the overarching emphasis on exam performance at the expense of the broader benefits of subject knowledge and capabilities such as critical and creative thinking.
  What are we Teaching? explores curriculum debates in relation to the current school climate, considering factors such as knowledge-led education, teaching to the test, and the challenge of teacher retention and recruitment issues. It includes new research involving teachers in real schools engaging with powerful knowledge, and it prompts teachers to evaluate their responsibilities as 'curriculum makers'. The book invites teachers to consider why their subject specialism is important as part of a whole school curriculum vision, and a provides language with which to articulate that.
  Part One introduces the key theories on which the book is based, including different ways of making sense of knowledge, skills and values in the curriculum, powerful knowledge and educational capabilities. What are we Teaching?is research-based, using voices of real teachers who engaged with the question 'what makes your subject powerful knowledge for young people', and Part Two, which focuses on different subject areas, examines these testimonies. The final part offers advice on building a powerful knowledge and capabilities rich curriculum in schools. Each chapter includes a set of reflective questions which can be used as part of ITE training or staff CPD.
  Essential reading for teachers, senior and subject leaders and curriculum coordinators.

  History of Jerusalem - A...

  Jerusalem is one of the world’s oldest cities, with a history that stretches back thousands of years. Over the course of its existence, it has been invaded 52 times, seized and regained 44 times, besieged 23 times, and destroyed twice. The oldest portion of the city dates back to the 4th millennium BCE, making it not only a significant historical center but also a symbol of resilience and conflict. Its role in the ancient world has been central to the development of various cultures, religions, and empires that have passed through the region, contributing to its complex and contested history. 
  Given the city’s profound significance in both Israeli and Palestinian national identities, the interpretation of its long history is often influenced by ideological predispositions. For Israeli nationalists, the Jewish eras of Jerusalem’s past are paramount, as they claim continuity with the ancient Israelites and view their connection to the city as a fundamental part of their modern identity. This narrative emphasizes the city’s historical importance to the Jewish people, highlighting key moments such as the establishment of the First Temple and the city’s central role in Jewish religious and cultural life.
