The fourth lesson in the AQA Historic Environment 2022 series on Burghley’s Almshouses. This lesson focuses on why more almshouses were built across England at this time.
The lesson begins with a recap of the 1601 Poor Law asking students to assess success/limitations and then linking in the idea of almshouses. Students then use a video to explore why individuals like Whitgift built their almshouse. Students then complete the data capture assessing the differing reasons why more almshouses were built in Elizabethan England, moving on to a judgement on the most significant factor. The lesson then links back to Burghley’s personal motivations culminating in a debate and judgement plenary as to the key reason for his building of the almshouses.
