I've been a Secondary School teacher since 2013 and since discovering a passion for designing and creating engaging lessons that students genuinely appreciate, I couldn't imagine myself doing anything else. To date (Aug 2017) I've had over 35,000 people download my work that I have previously uploaded to TES and I've never received lower than 4 stars for my work in my feedback.

**IMPORTANT NOTE: **Whitechapel content is not covered in this scheme of work. I have created a separate booklet to cover the content for this unit of work.
I have created this scheme of work to deal with two problems that this GCSE typically presented. The first is the time it takes to deliver and the second is the retention of material. I have found that by teaching this unit of work thematically as opposed to chronologically, students have been able to track and understand the changes in crime, law enforcement and punishment over time. As well as this, by returning ‘to the start’ after each feature from Medieval to Modern, students are able to recap and remember some of the unique features of each time period.
Scheme takes between 12 - 15 weeks to complete.

Links to National Curriculum: Ideas, political power, industry and empire: Britain, 1745-1901 (the development of the British Empire with a depth study (for example, of India)
I have designed this scheme of work to tie into our Tudor / Stuart scheme of work with the birth of the British Empire before looking at India as a case study. I’ve worked very hard to ensure that the scheme is objective and not subjective as areas of the unit can be considered sensitive. All lessons are designed to be taught by specialists and non-specialists, no prior knowledge is required to cover the content.
Scheme should take between 5-6 weeks to complete.

Lessons included in scheme of work:
1 of 5 - The Rise of the Lancastrian Kings
2 of 5 - Herstory: Joan of Arc
3 of 5 - The War of the Roses
4 of 5 - The Princes in the Tower Mystery
5 of 5 - The Rise of the Tudors
Additional note: *This lesson purposefully misses the point that Henry VII likely had some involvement in the boys going missing. This point is revealed in the follow up lesson during the Rise of the Tudors.

All lesson PowerPoints, work sheets and information sheets provided. Information has been written for students with a reading age of 12.
The lessons have been carefully designed to take students (Ideally year 7) through the narrative of the War of the Roses step by step. We start by looking at the reign of King Richard II, those students who have covered the Peasants Revolt will be able to recall his actions here and tie together why he was unpopular. From there, we look at the events and actions of the different leaders until we arrive at the Tudor dynasty. The whole scheme should take roughly a half term to work through.
This scheme of work satisfies the National Curriculum:
The development of Church, state and society in Medieval Britain 1066-1509
The Hundred Years War
The Wars of the Roses; Henry VII and attempts to restore stability

All lesson PowerPoints, work sheets and information sheets provided. Information has been written for students with a reading age of 12. The scheme of work is designed for students in year 8 and slots neatly between schemes of work on the British Empire and the Industrial Revolution.
This scheme of work satisfies the National Curriculum’s need for ’ at least one study of a significant society or issue in world history and its
interconnections with other world developments.’
I have put a lot of thought and effort into providing an human experience led scheme of work that looks at the individual struggles of those who were enslaved as well as the international reasons for the slave trades existence.
