Battlefield Tours Commemorating the Centenary of the First World War

The IOE has devised a £5.3 million national education program to allow secondary schools in England to visit battlefields on the Western Front. The commemorations of the First World War Centenary, which took place from 2014 to 2018, were a worldwide act of memory to honor and commemorate those who died in the conflict.

Fighting took place not just on the 'Western Front' in Europe, but also in southern and eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. A total of 37 million people, including soldiers and civilians, died as a result of the war.

IWM made The Battle of the Somme available for free to members of the Partnership in 2016, a century after it was filmed, coupled with a contemporary score commissioned by IWM from composer Laura Rossi.
