  10. Teacher notes/ideas from writing frame.

  11. Example writing: religious upheaval After wanting to get rid of Catherine of Aragon, Henry went to the pope for a divorce, but the pope declined, Henry was angry and fell out with the pope and burnt down over 800 monasteries. Henry had run out of money, so Cromwell suggested dissolving the monasteries and Henry had evidence that monks weren’t behaving as they should. He was also worried that the monks wouldn’t be loyal because he had broken with Rome.

  12. Example writing: religious upheaval After wanting to get rid of Catherine of Aragon, Henry went to the pope for a divorce, but the pope declined, Henry was angry and fell out with the pope and burnt down over 800 monasteries. The religious upheaval that Henry caused, began when he insisted on a divorce from Catherine of Aragon; this had to be approved by the Pope.

  13. Example writing: was Henry VIII a great monarch or a tyrant?How can this be improved? There is no doubt that Henry was dedicated to ensuring England’s kingdom was strong. He needed to fill the treasury, as he was a big spender.He also married well in order to keep money in the treasury. Henry saw his duty as making sure that England was safe and rich. This proves that he was a good monarch at times, and he really cared for his country.
