I provide schemes of work and lesson resources for key stage 3 and 4 that I have used in the classroom. They aren't perfect, but they are of high quality and they will likely save you a lot of time at the weekends. I don't think teachers should ever really have to work at the weekend. I'm hoping people can use these resources to get some of their time back.

This booklet will help you engage your pupils in improving their AIC work. I use it in the week or two weeks directly after they’ve taken their mock exams to buy me time to mark them without pupils nagging me. It also saves me from the trauma that is trying to get them to improve their work by just ‘redrafting’. You can tailor the pages and activities to your class, as I’ve saved this as a power point file. It just looks like it should be a glamorous PDF. If you’re looking for something to help you stand out in your department or improve the value of your purple pen lessons then give this a try. It features Skills and Knowledge trackers for them to RAG Vocab to look up Sentences to improve A Refresher on what analysis is Guidance on how to write an essay Linguistic Terminology they could use Help with poetry annotation Mock essay questions with quotations and supporting ideas for them to adapt

7 Weeks worth of vocabulary that you could use as the basis for quizzing whilst you teach An Inspector Calls. Each week there is a list of core vocab and a table of more advanced vocabulary for more independent learners. These lists compliment my AIC SOL, but can of course be used completely independently.

Here are 7 different essays that I have used with my classes. They provide good quality examples for pupils to emulate, and distinguish between poor quality and good quality essay writing. Whichever character you are revising, there will be something useful here for you. I’ve also included review bookmark to help point pupils in the right direction if they don’t understand what an essay is made of yet.
