Two weeks ago I heard a conference by Peter Seixas (the Canadian who is behind these benchmarks) and it was absolutely inspiring... if ever you have the opportunity, go and see and hear him talking about history teaching!
I couldn't find any primary or even secondary sources on this site but did find some podcasts you can watch/listen to. They seem to want you to pay to join. Don't they realise I'm on a teacher's salary?
"The Royal Historical Society bibliography is an authoritative guide to what has been written about British and Irish history from the Roman period to the present day. The Bibliography is hosted by the Institute of Historical Research, which is part of the University of London." How nice of them.

Yes it is a concise essay expressing complex changes very succinctly. The Website from which it comes looks very useful too. A number of Key historical topics and periods each with some original articles, book reviews, recommended websites etc. It is backed by the very reliable Institute of Historical Research see:
