This spread sheet (affectionately named the grade maker) is a spread sheet that enables teacher to predict final GCSE grades based on potential attainment in the different areas of the course. It has been very useful during student review sessions and is excellent at helping to identify areas where additional marks can be gained. This teacher resource also contains helpful administrative pages for collating coursework.

An original song aimed at younger children to learn in vocal groups. An easy and memorable melody with lots of scope for including harmonies with older pupils. The lyrics speak about becoming more positive and valuing those things often taken for granted. This includes a demo recording, chord chart and lyrics.

This is a lead sheet for an original piece of music written by me. It has a latin/funk feel and though melodically straight forward it is rhythmically challenging. A video demonstrating the possibilities of the chart is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4ei6bVaPT0 This has worked very well with both beginners and senior students.
