  2. How has the curriculum changed in relation to the teaching of Elizabeth I?Examples of areas of the curriculum EI could be taught:

  3. The problems of teaching Elizabeth I at Key Stage 2 under the new curriculum -She is not highlighted as an example of someone to study at KS2 in the National Curriculum -No examples of lesson objectives / no sense of how much time spent teaching her -Existing Tudor QCA units will continue to be used so no more room for her -Possible overlap with KS1 teachers -Complex events and themes run through Elizabeth’s reign more suited to KS3teaching

  4. How the problems can be overcome -Schools need to include Elizabeth on their new whole-school and medium term plans -Teachers need to create and deliver effective lessons on Elizabeth for KS2 pupils to enjoy -Co-ordinators should be aware of the possible overlap with KS1 when designing theirwhole-school history curriculums

  5. The outcomes of overcoming these problems Including Elizabeth I at KS2 gives pupils more opportunities to extend their knowledge of chronological awareness beyond 1066 by extending and connecting the Tudor period from The first Tudor monarch to the last Improved pupil attainment and progression in history

  6. Further lesson objective ideas for teaching Elizabeth I at Key Stage 2 • Do we get different ideas from looking at portraits and seals of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I? - How much did it matter that Elizabeth I could not go into battle, being a female monarch? • Was Mary I’s reign terrifying? Were the people of England glad when EI came to power? • Why did Tudor exploration flourish more under Elizabeth I • than previous Tudor monarchs? • Can I write a poem that describes the differences between • Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I and EI? • Was it right that Elizabeth I allowed Mary Queen of Scots • refuge in England?
