This unit will introduce children to the Roman Empire and its impact on Britain. Starting with an understanding of the expansion of the Roman Empire, the children will build a sense of chronology and scale by mapping the empire’s growth and placing Britain within it. Throughout the unit, they will focus on how the Romans were an organised and intelligent civilisation, and how these qualities supported their expansion. Through the story of Queen Boudicca’s rebellion, the children will learn how portrayals of historical figures can differ. They will also examine what everyday life in Roman Britain looked like and, by the end of the unit, understand the importance of Roman rule in Britain and the lasting legacies that remain today.
