An extensive resource pack of GCSE, AS and A Level revision notes and support materials. There is obviously some over lap as these materials also include the older resources for the legacy A Level but many boards still make use of these materials. The GCSE packs provide guidance for pupils who might be struggling with the more numerical aspects of the course and they have often proven useful as LS materials at a higher level. The pack also includes a couple of revision packs focused upon financial ratios and investment appraisal which A Level pupils should find very useful. They also come with answers and revision mind maps. Overall, a very good value pack for teachers and pupils alike.

A detailed series of marketing notes for GCSE and A Level Business that include revision sheets and some more in depth learning support style materials.

A selection of some of the key materials from the legacy AQA Business Studies specification. Many of the resources are still relevant to other boards and included are copies of the old style questions as part of a revision package.
These are my revision notes for Unit 2 of the AQA legacy paper. Updated versions are available to purchase as well for the new specification but these notes provide a good basic outline of many topic areas.
This resource provides a detailed, well presented and accessible series of notes intended to support the study of AQA’s AS Business course. All aspects of the AS course specification are included in the notes and there are over 130 pages of material for students to follow. Additional resources are being created too at my new website which should hopefully be completed by the end of April 2018.
