In general I agree that some form of regional catagorisation of what is important should be implemented.
Is this not much the same as developing regional research agendas? Many places in England already have those, but they seem to be applied somewhat irregularly, and I have seen them used as an excuse to record a minimal amount of detail on development sites so they do not always work as intended.
It would certainly be interesting to see a more regional flavour imparted to history lessons in schools through this approach, and I might have enjoyed history more in school had this been done. On the other hand, I only really started to enjoy history when I got to university, and realised that the "facts" were not as absolute as I had been led to believe in school.
