On 12 - 13 February 2007 the IHR held a conference called 'Why History Matters' to discuss the question of why History is a crucial element in UK education and national life in the early twenty-first century. Delegates were drawn from an unprecedented range of professional backgrounds, including primary, secondary, further and higher education, school governors, HMIs, representatives of museums, the QCA, the media, the connexions and guidance services, examining boards, English Heritage, the Council for British Archaeology and Historic Royal Palaces.
