    The cracking of the Enigma code at Bletchley Park was a significant turning point in World War 2. Bletchley Park was where German codes were cracked using the Bombe machine, allowing the Allies to read messages that helped turn the tide of the Battle of the Atlantic. As more Enigma messages were decrypted, ship sinkings by German U-boats decreased later in the war. Alan Turing and others' ability to break the code helped the Allies gain vital intelligence to reduce losses against the German submarine threat.

    How significant a turning point in World


    War II was the cracking of Enigma?

    LO: To identify what Enigma was and


    how significant the breaking of it was
    for World War II

    Bletchley Park was once the world's best kept secret and a key part of the country's
    war effort against Germany.
    Every detail about the sprawling Buckinghamshire estate was shrouded in mystery
    as German Enigma codes were cracked using the Bombe machine.
    Can you break the code?

    The Battle of the Atlantic
    Task: DUE IN FRIDAY 10TH FEBRUARY (LAST DAY OF HALF TERM)
    Create at least an A3 page piece of work explaining why the breaking of Enigma was an
    important turning point in World War II. If you need to, use the sentences below to start
    your work. You must justify your writing using everything you have learned about the
    Battle of the Atlantic and the breaking of the code at Bletchley Park.
    Include the following:
    Ideas to include:
    •What was the Battle of the Atlantic?
    •What happened to the amount of ships sunk by U-boats towards the end of the war?
    •Why do you think this happened?
    •How do you think the breaking of the Enigma code helped reduce the amount of ships
    sunk by U-boats?
    •What is Bletchley Park and what happened there?
    •Who was Alan Turing and what did he achieve?
    Organise your work as you wish and include pictures to show more information.
    “I think that the breaking of Enigma was/wasn’t an important turning
    point in World War II because…”

    “For example, [talk about Battle of the Atlantic]”

    “Without the Enigma code being broken…”
