Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 2 EXAM UNIT- Criminological Theories-AC4.3 Lesson & Task
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 4: LO 4: Understand causes of policy change
AC 4.3 Discuss how campaigns affect policy development
I have included a power point lesson which gets students to reflect on the campaigns for change they covered in Unit 1. This helped my students to tackle this section better as they then understood how this fitted in with causes of policy change (e.g. Stephen Lawrence and the abolishment of the double jeopardy rule). I had a really good class discussion about this section and we highlighted how the government is often very reactive to incidents rather than proactive. My students were saddened that tragedies such as this had to happen before the government did anything about it.
I have also included an activity sheet and some typical exam questions for this section.
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 2 EXAM UNIT- Criminological Theories-AC4.1 Lesson & Activities
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 4: LO 4: Understand causes of policy change
AC4.1 Assess the use of Criminological Theories in Informing Policy Development
This section considers how theories (already covered earlier in the unit) can help to reduce crime. For example, the idea that CBT/pyschoanalysis can help someone overcome long-term trauma or abuse. If long-term trauma or abuse is not dealt with this can often lead to aggression /anger issues and can in some instances sadly result in criminality. This section of the exam therefore explores a variety of those theories (from diet to token economy etc).
I have included a number of activities to help keep students engaged e.g. eat well plate, case studies, examples of crime prevention policies and exam questions linked to this section.
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 2 EXAM UNIT- Criminological Theories-END OF UNIT REVISION
Revision materials for the end of Unit 2:
I found that doing a mixture of tests, revision activities and getting students to have a go at their own revision materials was the best way to revise. It kept it fun, engaging and mixed up!
My students found the Key Theorists Quick Revision Sheet very useful for learning them all so I gave them all a copy and laminated one for the classroom wall. This really came in handy with the lollypop game I played with them all (put the names of the theorists on a lollypop stick and they have to explain who that theorist is and what the theory is about. Make sure you give the lollypop sticks out randomly).
I had a student on results day say that she hated this game at the time but after receiving her A grade- she couldn’t thank me for it enough as it really did WORK! Give it a whirl!
Bundle
Unit 2 Criminological Theories EXAM UNIT (New Spec) WHOLE UNIT BUNDLE
This is a bundle of all the teaching resources you would need for the teaching and learning of Unit 2 Criminological Theories (the externally examined unit).
The resources provided are for Level 3 students studying Criminology (Eduqas/WJEC spec).
Each lesson contains a power point and a variety of activities to cover each section. The activities vary from case studies, missing words, key terms sheets, court template/legislation tasks and many other work sheets that cover this diverse topic.
Also included are example exam questions (both long and short) to ensure that students differentiate this topic from the controlled assessment unit which is a different style of teaching and learning.
Given the current nature of students learning from home, I have also created a STUDENT HOME LEARNING PACK that my students have found really useful. I have set them deadlines for each section so I can see that they are learning and revising from home.
Feel free to message me with any questions as I know that this is a new course! I am now known as the Criminology Guru at my college so I am happy to help.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions for Unit 3 and Unit 4 if you are unsure about anything.

Criminology (New Spec) UNIT 3 Crime Scene to Court Room WHOLE UNIT BUNDLE
This is a bundle of all the teaching resources you would need for the teaching and learning of Unit 3 Crime Scene to Courtroom (the controlled assessment) of the Level 3 course.
The resources provided are for Level 3 students studying Criminology (Eduqas/WJEC spec).
Each lesson contains a power point and booklet for students to write in. I personally, use the booklets to keep track and ensure that students are doing what they should be. As you can’t mark student work until the end of the controlled assessment period- this really has helped me to track student progress. I get students to hand in their booklets after I have finished teaching each assignment criteria. This ensures that they are doing their independent research outside of lesson.
I have based these resources/lessons on the Gareth Hughes Assignment Brief (all the exam material provided by the exam board is FREE on the Eduqas website). I have made links to this assignment brief throughout as practice so that students then know how to apply each section when they are doing the formal controlled assessment (with a brief that they haven’t yet seen).
The resources provide you with booklets, answer plans, activities and much more to teach the whole of Unit 3 with. If you are teaching this for half the year, this provides you with effectively 6 months of teaching resources and it works out cheaper to buy the bundle rather than paying for each lesson individually.
Feel free to message me with any questions as I know that this is a new course! I am now known as the Criminology Guru at my college so I am happy to help.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions for Unit 3 and Unit 4 if you are unsure about anything.

Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 3-AC2.4: Influences that Affect Criminal Cases-Instructions & Activities
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 2: Understand the Processes for Prosecution of Suspects
AC 2.4: Assess Key Influences Affecting the Outcomes of Criminal Cases
The resources include:
A short lesson introducing different ideas on how a jury can be affected during their decision making.
A short booklet for students is also included to help them set out their work for the controlled assessment.
An independent activity sheet that helps to guide students on where to look for key influences.
An article by the BBC.
An acivity sheet on the R V Young case.
Having spent many teacher-led lessons on this unit, I decided to switch up tactics and make the students do some research and work of their own. These lesson resources helped to give me a breather as well as set my students up on the right track.
Giving them some ideas on case studies to use that are not included in the text book has really helped them to vary their work (rather than just regurgitating what is in there already).
The link for the BBC article is on the power point and is FREE to access on-line but I have also included a copy on here for ease.
