Included is a fairly difficult and challenging end of topic tests for student to attempt. Questions included are a mixture from old spec papers and my own questions (which are very difficult!).
Test is designed to stretch the high achievers while also ensuring basic foundations of knowledge are there; an application heavy paper in style of the challenging demands of the new specification exams.

I’ve attached the mark scheme and the grade boundaries i used.
Please do download and review! I would appreciate your feedback :)
With the demands of the new specification on practical skills and particularly methodology with Chemistry, i have compiled together a concise practical booklet on all the required practicals and the skills translated from there that will be assessed.
These condensed notes are perfect for students and include detailed but concise methods to score full marks.

Absolute plethora of over 1000 questions on ecology and mark schemes!
Students often struggle with ecology due to failing to apply any common sense reasoning so it is beneficial and logical for students to practise answering questions on ecology.
SIX FULL LESSONS on the AQA A Level Biology Nervous Coordination Topic.
Lessons explore hormonal and nervous coordination, neurone structure, salatory conduction, action potentials, synapses and finally muscles and muscle contraction.
Lessons include fun and engaging activities such as modelling muscle contraction and exploring the effect of drugs on synapses along with research on neuromuscular fatigue exercises and neurodegenerative diseases (excellent exam preparation material!) along with detailed, concise and fully explained notes on a challenging topic, and relevant exam questions along with some very challenging application questions.

Concise, detailed notes on the required practical including:
method needing to be recalled,
key scientific knowledge to support understanding and recall
diagrams and processing of results
tons of practical based relevant exam questions and mark schemes to assess knowledge
challenging application questions and mathematical questions throughout to consolidate learning.
Designed for AQA but can be easily adapted for other exam boards.
A challenge exam paper with many application questions and data analysis on homeostasis and the kidneys.
Designed for AQA but can easily be adapted for any exam board.
This resource is invaluable considering the sparsity of new specification papers.
I often produce my own end of topic tests and decided to produce a whole exam paper. I have also produced a sample Paper 3 which can be found and bought.
This is a demanding and challenging paper designed to stretch candidates. A suggested mark scheme has been included.

Eight full lessons on exploration of the gene expression, cancer, epigentics, the human genome project, protein synthesis and mutations
This is designed for AQA but can easily be adapted for other exam boards.
There are over 24 files with specifically chosen exam questions to develop recall, practical skills and challenging application questions scattered throughout to refine knowledge.
The lessons are concise and detailed with plenty of room for consolidation and engaging activities/AfL to support teaching.
This booklet was designed for biology students to complete during the Christmas holidays; a “12 days of Christmas” booklet with tasks and exam practise on the different areas within the “Exchange with the Environment” topic of AQA AS Biology.
The booklet is designed as a revision booklet for student to recap their learning but it can easily be changed into an in-lesson learning booklet to support teaching materials. There are tasks for each day staring with the 25th December. (!)
As mentioned before, there is lots of necessary exam practise with challenging application-style questions. The booklet was given to students on the last day of term, wrapped up as a present! Students were instructed to open this on Christmas. What a great present!

Over 100 questions on biological molecules and nucleic acids. The nucleic acids questions are less so and constrained to DNA and RNA as majority of questions link this part of the spec to Variation (so they’re all in there).
Mark schemes included.
A 70 page booklet with concise but detailed notes on each of the AS topic areas from the mole to inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry and then finally organic chemistry, along with the required AS Practicals with detailed notes on methods, calculations and addressing common questions, with an exploration on uncertainity thrown in for good measure.
This booklet takes a “page per sub-topic” approach offering detailed yet simple to follow and understand notes along with pictures, colours and examples. Guidance is also given on the tricky mathematical questions that AS students struggle with detailed step-by-step approaches to scenarios. Further, the are addressed in depth, from
This is beyond useful for not only revision but for teaching. I have attached it as the ppt format so that it can be edited as required.
Nine full lessons on the Recombinant DNA Technology topic for AQA A Level Biology. This topic is one of the most challenging due to the application and context-based nature. However, each lesson includes detailed and concise notes for some difficult to understand topics, along with relevant exam questions to help test skills, an essay prep, a practical, and fun and engaging activities to help consolidate learning.
