4. How many of these statements do you agree with and why?
1. The Simnel Rebellion was a serious challenge to Henry VII’s authority.
2. The rebellions of 1486/7 were easily suppressed.
4. The Battle of Stoke was the final battle in the Wars of the Roses.
3. The Yorkists were still a threat after the Battle of Stoke.

5. What threats did Henry VII face: WARBECK ASSESSMENT
Good learning:
Understand what is meant by interpretation
Great learning:
Explain how to answer Q1 on the exam and analysis different interpretations
Even better:
Write an answer on how convincing an interpretation is on Warbeck.
Key Word:
How important was the role of key individuals and groups and how were they affected by developments?
How effectively did the Tudors restore and develop the powers of the monarchy?

6. What is an interpretation?
An interpretation is a particular view on a topic of history held by a particular author or authors. Interpretations of an event can vary, for example, depending on how much weight an historian gives to a particular factor and whether they largely ignore another factor.
The interpretations that you will be given will be largely from recent or fairly recent historians, and they may, of course, have been influenced by events in the period in which they were writing.
Now read through each of these statements and decide whether they are FACT or OPINION:
Warbeck and Simnel were pretenders to the throne of Henry VII.
The Simnel Rebellion was more significant than the Warbeck rising.
3. The Warbeck conspiracy was more dangerous because of foreign support.
4. The Simnel rising had more support within England.

7. Interpretation and evidence
The extracts given in the exam will contain a mixture of interpretations and evidence. The mark scheme rewards answers that focus on the interpretations offered by the extracts much more highly than answers that focus on the information or evidence mentioned in the extracts. Therefore, it is important to identify the interpretations.

8. How convincing is this interpretation in relation to the significance of the Warbeck and Simnel risings? Refer to the extract and use your understanding of the historical context. (25 marks)
The [Warbeck] plot had never won much support in England and had been a danger only because of the use made of it by foreign powers. Without their help, it would not have dragged on for so long. It is likely that Warbeck’s rising was part of a detailed plan by the Yorkists to regain the throne, rather than a spontaneous event. Although it is unlikely that he ever convinced anyone that he was Richard, the Yorkists saw in it their best chance of removing Henry and were willing to back anyone to gain revenge. Even though it failed it did cause Henry considerable embarrassment and it was for that reason that he finally executed him. The revolt had easily been contained and Warbeck, unlike Simnel, had been unable to force the king into a pitched battle. The greatest challenge was that of Simnel, because it came so soon after Bosworth and forced Henry to fight another battle before he could be certain of support.

Task:
Read through the following extract and complete the following tasks:
Stick in the middle of an A4 sheet and look up/annotate any words you don’t understand
Highlight in one colour anything that is a FACT
Highlight in a second colour anything that is an INTERPRETATION

9. How convincing is this interpretation in relation to the significance of the Warbeck and Simnel risings? Refer to the extract and use your understanding of the historical context. (25 marks)
1. What is the interpretation (view) of the Simnel and Warbeck rebellions given in the extract?
TASK: On each table you have been given an A4 sheet with a copy of the same extract and a question I would like you to look at. As a table write down your thoughts and then they will be passed on to the next group. We will then feedback on your ideas to record onto your sheet afterwards.
As we feedback make sure you record the notes onto your sheet.
2. What evidence can you find in the extract to support the argument?
3. What do you know (that is, contextual knowledge) that supports these claims?
(Use the information from your handouts and the textbook)
4. What contextual knowledge do you have to contradict these claims? (Is there any information/evidence that suggests a different view?)
Is there any evidence to suggest that Warbeck’s rising was more dangerous?
5. Using your judgment, are the arguments in support stronger than the arguments against, or vice versa? Do you agree that the interpretation is convincing? If so, why? If not, why not?

10. Use the writing frame opposite to help you.
