This resources covers the main elements of Python 3.0. It is a fantastic resource that is filled with knowledge, mini tasks, larger tasks and assessment style questions. It can be used either as lessons support for teaching Python to a class, or it can be used independently by the student. It can be used as a PDF on the computer or can be printed if needed.

It is a full set of lessons that can be used by teachers and will guide students from no Python knowledge to a good understanding. It is estimated that this resource will take 14-20 hours to complete if used correctly within lessons.

This resource will is aimed at KS3 Students (Year 8 & 9); However, it can work well for GCSE Classes in Year 10 and Year 11, or those new to Python in any year group. The topics covered start very basic and then work up to more complex tasks and as such, the resource self-differentiates, some students creating more complex programmes than other. Again, you can introduce chapters as needed and mix and matach.

This is not worth £14.99 it is a complete rip off especially when you consider that you can get from CGP a Python workbook for £4 from CGP with lots more content. Students can even get the book from online resources for £9.99 and whilst it is for the GCSE it would be just as good for your students at KS3.
