Ideal for Key Stage 3 students for an introduction to politics in the UK or for GCSE/A level students studying the main details of different political parties and values.

Edexcel Politics Alevel Lessons on Ideologies as a whole and Liberalism as a topic for the Edexcel 2017 spec. I teach Liberalism first because it makes MUCH more sense since it was developed first as an Ideology and Conservatism was a response to it. This bundle includes the first 7 lessons (2 hours each) intro and activities, Core Values with independent research (uses hand outs from Pearson and Haywood book) and Explanation of the Core Values but you could use some of the slides if you don’t have the textbook. Lesson 5 ends up developing a plan for the essay: To what extent do Liberals agree on the State? (24 marks) I taught these lessons to my Year 13 class and they worked really well for discussion. Also includes some embedded videos and worksheets. EDIT: I have now amended this resource and added some additional files. If you have already paid for it- you should be able to redownload the bundle.

An assortment of worksheets to use for revision of British Government and Politics topics.

This resource shows visually, on a continuum line, the political leanings/affiliations of most major British print news outlets. This is particularly useful for international students who may have to deal with British media texts in examinations but are not familiar with the cultural aspects surrounding them. The continuum shows whether each paper is a tabloid or broadsheet and whether they lean politically to the right or left, or whether they are more centrist. There is further scope to add extra imagery if desired. Students are also provided with weblinks to four independent analyses of British newspapers’ politics and culture (all links still active as of July 6th, 2021).
