I examine for CIE and have created these mock exam papers in line with their mark schemes. These are designed for the FIRST YEAR of the course, so include one 90 minute paper for January and one for June which is 2 hours - the idea is to build the students' skills in analysing text and writing about technical elements and acting. They are word files which are editable as they refer to practical projects the students complete. Both have detailed mark schemes and there are exemplar answers I have written for each question. I use these mark schemes to teach the students about the style required by the board in the written paper. Can be used in conjunction with my IGCSE Revision Guide.

I designed this SOW to link with our PSHCE Curriculum on running away and to prepare students for the devising units in the post 2016 GCSE Specifications.

A cross-curricular English/Drama one-off workshop on the abstract poem 'The Red Wheelbarrow' by William Carlos Williams.

This is a 10 lesson resource for teaching the play 'Walking With Shadows' by Ben Myers. I have found that the play really engages Year 9 students as it focuses on mental illness, the super-natural and creates mystery. You will need a class set of this script to be able to teach this unit. All lessons have a detailed powerpoint, differentiated resources with AGT stretch and challenge. Lesson handouts and homework sheets are also provided. The scheme introduces Artaud, Immersive Theatre and other abstract theatrical devices - it is a great preparation for GCSE as written tasks are based on the new GCSE Specifications. All resources are in word/ppt format, allowing for your amendments.

This powerpoint guides students through the basics of Frantic's style, using building blocks from their book. This was designed for L6th students who have a already completed my SOW on Homelessness, where Frantic Assembly is introduced (this can be purchased on TES). The information on how Frantic use dialogue and words in their work is not expanded in this powerpoint as it has been covered in more detail in the homelessness scheme (designed for KS3/4). I also sell a tailored writing frame for Edexcel Component 1, which links to this powerpoint and is tailored to support Devised work in the style of Frantic Assembly.
