Enquiry: Did the Normans bring a ‘truck-load of trouble’ to England in 1066?

This series of lessons investigates the impact of the Norman Conquest. It does this by getting students to question Simon Schama’s interpretation that the Normans brought a ‘truck-load of trouble’ to England. The sequence is five lessons long, with the first four lessons delivering the content and the fifth wrapping up the enquiry.

This enquiry explores the impact of the Norman Conquest on England during William the Conqueror’s reign.
