The resources that will be created to accompany all of this material will be text based, sound based, visual and image based and will offer activities, tasks and reflections as well as resources for further study and investigation. A lot of the material will link in with Citizenship, English, Film and Media, History, Human Geography, Art, Design and Technology, Drama and the Performing arts, Music technology and performance, ICT, Anthropology, Sociology and Languages and Linguistics. The intention will be to offer a range of different levels of access to the material that heritage matters is presenting so that a range of different learning routes can be used to access the material and a lot of the focus will inevitably be upon the Vardo as a route into all of this material and the processes inherent within the restoration itself and how this involved many of the different curriculum areas outlined above.

There will also be a scheme of work and a programme of study for the Heritage Matters materials as well as a series of power-points created by the young people who are involved directly in the creative visualisation of the project and many of these will focus upon their ideas for the Vardo itself. The other point of access to this material will of course be through music and it is anticipated that this will offer an important and significant level of access for those young people who relate to and enjoy music since it is the intention of the website to offer unusual remixes of traditional Kentish music in a contemporary idiom using skilled producers to re-imagine and to re-locate a lot of this cultural richness in new and unexpected forms of musical expression.
