This unit is designed to allow students to investigate how William consolidated his control of Britain after the Norman invasion. It starts by looking at the 'Harrying of the North' by William and how he ruthlessness wiped out all opposition to his rule. The second unit looks at how he rewarded his supporters and tightened his control by introducing the Feudal System. Whilst studying this unit it is important to emphases the importance of doing 'homage' and taking the 'oath of allegiance' as William placed considerable importance on this aspect. His key justification for the Norman invasion was his claim that King Harold was an oath breaker and that his victory was a vindication of the just by God. The fourth unit looks at the Domesday Book and how land and wealth was distributed. Please make sure you point how to your students how much land and wealth was given to the Church as the Pope had supported his invasion. The final two units look at the roles played by different types of castles in helping William consulate his control. This resource is best used alongside the Heinemann History series which is referred to in the scheme of work. It represents excellent value as I have included all the relevant lesson resources along with two literacy mats to help students write a persuasive letter to their local Lord explaining why they should replace the Motte and Bailey Castle with a Square Keep Castle. This work makes an excellent display and assessment work, especially if students age their work with tea bags or coffee.
