Leeds South Bank Regeneration Project
Leeds South Bank is one of Europe’s largest regeneration projects, covering 253 hectares of land. 8,000 additional homes are being provided and over 35,000 jobs created by 2028. A massive £500m regeneration initiative has been approved to double the size of the Leeds city centre by redeveloping this ex-industrial area south of the River Aire. With this record level of investment secured, it will be the biggest change the city has seen in more than a hundred years.
This lesson provides reasons for the regeneration and then outlines the key features of the scheme. It includes a range of good quality pictures and there is an accompanying 13 minute video.

Biomes Homework Sheet - Ecosystem Project
Homework is a difficult part of the job that very few get right, including myself. I designed this homework sheet so that all students in year 7 can access homework when we were completing the topic Biomes. They are given 6 weeks complete this task, which is about the duration of the topic. This fits in with my departments homework policy which is to provide one piece of homework every two weeks. The sheet can be easily adapted to fit your schools/departments own homework policy.
