21 well designed lessons for the GCSE study of An Inspector Calls, including all classroom resources, handouts, homework tasks and two assessments. This is a fun and enagaging scheme of learning and the slides are colourful and clearly scaffolded! This was designed for the iGCSE Pearson Edexcel spec but could easily be used for the Pearson GCSE or AQA spec too! Although the iGCSE exam does not actually test Context (A04) for Modern Drama, this scheme of learning is quite context heavy because it enriches the learning and I taught it to a year 10 group who needed practice with contextual skills.
