##How Has Britain Been Transformed by Conquest? c.790–1086 (Full Unit of Work)**##

Bundle Summary
This complete unit explores how Britain was reshaped by two major waves of conquest: the arrival of the Vikings and the Norman Conquest. Across a fully sequenced set of lessons, pupils investigate who the Vikings were, why they raided and settled, how Anglo‑Saxon England responded, and how the Norman invasion in 1066 transformed society, land ownership, language, law, and power. The scheme blends clear historical narrative with strong enquiry, source work, and accessible modelling.
