This comprehensive scheme of work covers the Norman Conquest and its impact on English society, featuring a unique, immersive, and interactive Learning World (free to play!). The Learning World feeds directly into in-class activities and can be used as an ongoing homework project – students can complete the free codex booklet as they progress, consolidating their learning.
Every lesson in the SOW has been designed with enough differentiation, activity variety, cross-curricular support, and progress checks to be ready for use “out of the box” in an observation lesson. Skills are built progressively across the scheme to improve exam writing ability, source analysis, and soft skills.
Free to download: The first two lessons and the Learning World Codex (note: some slides are not editable in the free versions). The remaining lessons are for sale and are fully editable.
From experience, this resource creates a real buzz in the classroom. Students are highly engaged, and interest often spreads beyond the teaching group – in one case, the entire department adopted it. Parents have also given extremely positive feedback, with many trying out the Learning World themselves.
Highlights:
Fully integrated interactive Learning World linked to in-class activities
Differentiated and cross-curricular lesson design
Builds historical skills alongside knowledge content
Suitable for KS3 History and adaptable for other contexts

Amazing resource, will use this to start my topic to get some engagement right off the bat!
Certainly a different way of engaging the students!!! Boys especially are excited to do it as a homework task! Funny that? Thanks for the effort in sharing.
Love the Learning World on the website. I've used it at the tail end of last year and the students played it through several times without me asking them to. I have it all set up for the entire department starting this year. Looking forward to the feedback. (the inclusion of medicine and war knowledge is a nice touch - preps my guys for KS4).
