Summary of the key material students need for AQA A Level philosophy. Mostly linked to the Hodder text book (Hayward, Jones, Cardinal) so can be followed alongside the text book, but in places draws more on the Lacewing book. This booklet should help with differentiation as students who struggle with the text book can use it for tasks. My more able students also use them as a ‘way in’ and find they can read the text book more easily once they’ve gone through the summary booklet.
