History A/S level Wars of the Roses: Society and Economy, 1450–1471, Part One (Henry VI)

An essential overview lesson and/or revision guide for parents, pupils and teachers covering all the points you need to gain good marks in the first module of the Unit 2B course of the History A/S and A level syllabus. Written for the AQA exam board, but suitable for all exam boards, this TWELVE page, clearly written document also has multiple choice questions to check understanding and comprehensive further reading sources to delve more deeply into the module.

This covers all the CONTEXT of Henry VI's social and economic policy, provides good detail of the social and economic Acts and Statutes between 1450-61 (when Edward IV acceded the throne) and makes the valid point that the Council ruled 'for' the king for much of his reign (vested interest/factionalism). This is part 1 of the activity guide on this topic. Part 2 will soon be available on here. Without context, writing good grade essays at A level is not possible.

Part of a set of guides for the entire Unit 2B course, consisting of overviews, events, geneaologies, activities set by AQA, in depth and source work. Together they make a full, A grade coverage of the entire syllabus.

Suitable for A/S and A level.
