Medicine in Britain, c1250–present
The process of change
In studying the content defined below in strands 1 and 2, students should understand how key features in the devel‐opment of medicine were linked with the key features of society in Britain in the periods studied.
They should develop an understanding of the nature and process of change. This will involve understanding pa erns

across the theme. Key factors are: individuals & ins tu ons (Church and government); science & technology; a tudes
in society.
They should also understand how factors worked together to bring about par cular developments at par cular mes.
The selected case studies in strand 3 of each period exemplify, in context, the elements defined in strands 1 & 2. They
provide opportuni es to explore the opera on of the key factors & to make detailed comparisons over me.
