Hockey sticks to the ready as Ju Gosling takes us on a journey to remember Girls’ School Stories and explains their significance to women’s history.

Claire Jones asks was Bess of Hardwick a scheming social climber or woman succeeding in a man’s world?

Where is the women’s history in schools? Sue Johnson goes in search.

We also have an interview with Lesley Hall and an exploration of the Wellcome medical archives, a women’s history walk around Bloomsbury in London, reviews, news, listings and more.
