Partition of Ireland 1900-25 for CCEA A2 level

This resource has been developed to fully address A2 2 Option 4: 'Partition of Ireland 1900-25' of the CCEA specification. Dr Rees guides the students through this formative period, covering the role and actions of unionists, nationalists and the British government.
