  • Invasion, migration, and settlement

Description

In this unit, pupils learn about the Anglo-Saxon Church and the reforms made to it by the Normans. They reflect on how and why the Church and monasticism changed in England during this period.

This unit uses and builds on the previous unit where pupils learnt about changes to the lives of ordinary people under Norman rule. Pupils' knowledge of Anglo-Saxon Christianity, built in year 5, and their year 7 study of the medieval Christian world also help to prepare pupils for this unit. This unit rounds off pupils' study of Norman England, preparing them for their study of the historic environment.

  2. Lanfranc's reforms
