A lesson that covers Marx & Engels for the Edexcel unit on socialist ideologies.

A 120 page textbook for the Pearson Edexcel IGCSE course: The Vietnam Conflict, 1945 to 1975, covering all the key topics with accompanying tasks and practice exam-style questions, as well as guidance on exam technique. I created this due to the lack of an exam-board approved textbook. It was a labour of love that amounted to many, many late evenings of work. It is designed so that you can print and distribute to your classes, though please do leave a review if you find it useful!

This lesson provides: A reasonably extensive coverage of the different electoral systems that are required for analysis in the Edexcel specification A scaffold for evaluating the different electoral systems in coming to a judgement between them. A sample question that provides a completely made-up source (so that you can use without fear of reducing the pool of resources already available to students for practicing source questions for this specification). The presentation is best delivered through the PowerPoint presentation mode, as each electoral system slide comes with buttons which will link you to the strengths, weaknesses and specific examples for students to know for each system. Just click on these during the presentation and it will move to the correct slide. I have also used data from the electoral commission to create a visual representation of the % make up of seats that would have occurred in the 2017 general election. On slide 21, an additional version of this image is shown - this shows the actual % split of votes so that you can compare each of the images against it. Each individual circle within these images constitutes 1% of the vote.

A comprehensive lesson resource looking at the current standing of the Liberal Democratic Party as well as its historical and ideological groundings. This lesson also incorporates a consideration of liberalism as an area of consideration to apply to the evolution of the party, potentially offering stretch and challenge questioning as you cover the evolution of the party.

Within this bundle are 5 individual presentations, each one looking at one of the key Liberal thinkers required for the Edexcel Government & Politics course. The key thinkers covered are: Locke Wollstonecraft Mill Rawls Friedan Each lesson covers a range of information about the relevant thinker, with a collection of quotes, factual information and tasks to guide student learning. Not included in this bundle: An overview of the key themes of Liberalism A breakdown between Classical and Modern Liberalism

A presentation looking at the consequences of the Treaty of Brest Litvosk on Russia. Guidance to lesson slides is often included in the notes section of a slide.

The fourth lesson to my Socialism unit, looking at The Third Way. The presentation gives a level of coverage that would lead to a deep understanding for KS5 students.

A comprehensive lesson resource looking at the current standing of the Labour Party as well as its historical and ideological groundings. This lesson also incorporates a consideration of populism as an area of consideration to apply to the most recent leadership of Jeremy Corbyn.

This bundle contains the bulk of the resources I used to provide my A-Level unit on Britain, 1625-1701 (Edexcel) last year. It contains a combination of PowerPoint presentations as well as worksheets. Although this represents a significant amount of time and effort, I am only pricing this at £10 as it comes with some caveats: These resources will not be sufficient for the full provision of the political and religious components of the A-Level course. Some lessons are built on the presumption that you have access to the core textbook. They provide direction on relevant pages and recommended tasks, however most lessons are not built on this and if you do not have access to the textbook then there will still be value in accessing the information in the bundle as well as the structure that the course was carried out in. There is some direction to external websites given in the notes. One task in the unit directs you towards Massolit, which is an incredible resource and I would highly recommend making use of it. The course will still require extensive time dedicated to understanding the course. Some slides direct discussion, but do not provide all of the information. Although I’d consider this level of knowledge expected to successfully run an A-Level course, I understand that it is a limitation of the resource that it is not comprehensive in and of itself. This bundle is intended as a resource to draw from. Some lessons you may feel comfortable running with without much amending. However, I’m only sharing this as it is a course I taught for one year and now will not be teaching again due to A-Level changes within the department, so I hope it is of some use in flushing out the courses for other teachers.

Just a short lesson that provides an introduction to the functions of political parties. This lesson was run with students having access to research devices (phones/laptops). They were provided with the features and functions by the teacher, then set off to research the different areas. The direction of the discussion is shown in the image file within the lesson.

In delivering this lesson, I needed to carry some content over into the subsequent lesson. As such, I have provided both presentation documents so that you may draw as you’d like from each in building out/delivering your own lesson. These lessons look at the Purges and the Secret Police, including an information sheet for students to read.

This is an introductory lesson looking at a welfare state for the Britain transformed a-level course. It focuses on the definition of the term and developing some understanding of the situation at the start of the course.

A lesson within a wider unit of work, analysing the different causes of WWI. This lesson provides a narrative of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. As this is heavily based on narrative, rather than effectively designed resources, I will share it for free so you can take what you’d find useful.

An introductory lesson to a KS3 unit introducing the second order concept of interpretations. This lesson provides an introductory scaffold, two short interpretations and guides early analysis that is followed up in subsequent lessons.

A self-contained presentation that goes through the main claimants to the English throne before 1066.
