The first locates our approach theoretically\, primarily in the rich pedagogical literature\, while the second briefly contextualizes the Association and the school. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with teachers and activists\, it offers a chronology of a project that\, catalysed by the replica Follonsby miners’ banner\, developed spontaneously in several exciting directions. \nThese included the school developing its own miners’-style banner\, unveiled by the late Tony Benn\, who featured on it. The third section offers some wider observations about the educational partnership and then considers the specific challenges that the Follonsby banner’s iconography posed in terms of teaching and how these were overcome. \nFinally\, we discuss legacies and lessons\, arguing that the wider impacts of the project went far beyond the specific learning experience they offered the children involved.
