This assembly explains the back ground to pancake day and looks at why millions of people eat pancakes on Shrove Tuesday. -It covers the history of Shrove Tuesday -The meaning of lent -The purpose of fasting -How lent is celebrated around the world (in seven different countries) -Some fun facts about pancake day -Why many non-religious people take part in lent -How they can take part in lent (even if they aren’t Christian) It’s a well resourced, presented and explained assembly. They students should not only enjoy it but also reflect on their own lives. This is aimed at KS3/KS4 but could easily work for KS2 or even KS5. You could also use this in tutor time.

This lesson is to help the students to plan their revision by doing a twist on the idea of a post mortem. While a post mortem is after the event, the pre-mortem does the same thing but before the event (or exam). So instead of thinking about why they failed, they will think about why they might fail and try to put into place a plan to prevent that happening! A useful and thought provoking lesson.

This excellent assembly looks at the issue of mental health and tries to strip away some of the taboos surrounding talking about mental health issues. It includes the sad story of Robin Williams and looks at a advert from a Canadian charity focused on Mental Health. A really useful and powerful assembly that can be held at any time of year (but is best in May during MHA Week) Highly recommended.

This is an excellent assembly to get the students to think about the power of gossip and the importance of communicating effectively.

The activities are fun, active, engaging and challenging, and will help to develop the pupils knowledge of what British Values are and why they are so important. The PowerPoint is designed to be used with the attached booklet and contains a variety of activities including: key words, posters, poetry, general knowledge questions, links to highly relevant clips and critical thinking questions. This has been hugely successful in my school at improving the pupils knowledge of British Values and improving their understanding of why they are so important.

This resource can also be used in lessons such as PSHE as an activity or as a starter/plenary.

This powerpoint (with activities) can be adapted to your own personal use or planner design. It is designed to help tutor and pupils to ensure they are using their homework/study planners correctly and effectively. It also helps to promote consistency and efficiency and help to improve h/w recording across our school. This was a problem at my school until I created this presentation, and now it is much much better!

This is a fantastic twist on the flash cards idea that will prove to be a really useful revision tool in class. INSTRUCTIONS: There are 28 cards with key words on one side and their definitions on the other side. The twist, no one has a matching key word and definition. So they need to call out their key word and everyone must look at their definitions to see if they have the definition to that key word. If they do, they flip their card over and read out their key word and so on until you go all around the class and back to the first person who read out. This can get really competitive and forces the students to learn ALL the key words and definitions. You can make up your own rules (personally I time it, and every time there is a mistake I make them swap cards and start again!). This activity can easily be adapted to other schemes of work or even other subjects. I have used it for RE, History and Humanities. A fantastic and useful resource.

Title: Say what you mean and mean what you say This assembly focuses on getting the students to think about communicating clearly as words have consequences. It does this by looking at bad translations, famous parables and an amusing story. It culminates with a hilarious true(ish) story about a lost in translation discussion between a Swiss Priest and an English school teacher. This is one of my most popular assemblies with the students discussing it long after it has been held and requesting a follow up for a long time afterwards! This is a good assembly with a strong message.
