  • Invasion, migration, and settlement

Description

In this unit, pupils learn about medieval migration to Britain. They examine Viking, Norman, and Jewish migration, analysing the impact this had on Britain, with a particular focus on England.

This unit uses and builds on various units that deal with change and continuity from key stages 1, 2 and 3. It develops and reinforces pupils' big picture of the past that they have established in thematic units about seafarers and women. It also enriches and consolidates the majority of year 7 units, which focus primarily on the medieval world. This unit prepares pupils for the next, where migration is examined during the early modern period.

  1. The Viking conquest
  2. Case study: Viking York
  3. The Norman Conquest
  4. Jewish migration in medieval England
  5. Merchants and craftspeople in medieval England
  6. Migration in medieval England
