I give the relevant sheet out at the start of teaching a topic to help the students with their revision, if they miss a lesson, or if they want to work ahead.

The A-levels start with 20 multiple choice questions, so to get students use to them I’m going to set 20 a week, using EdPuzzle to mark them for me. There is a video working through the answers here https://youtu.be/jAV6P2eY5Eg
The Edpuzzle video has overlaid questions, which pauses the video to allow students to answer, it gives instant feedback and then I work through the answer before moving on to the next question. If you use the link you can assign it to your own classes and get the results. https://edpuzzle.com/media/558a9b785fd7a44633a2fbb5
This is a taster for similar style premium content.
To adjust for guessing (if I'm feeling mean) I use this...
FS = R - W/(C - 1),
FS "corrected" or formula score
R number of items answered right
W number of items answered wrong
C number of choices per item (same for all items).

For a FREE sample lesson see http://tinyurl.com/hqok5h6
Discount Bundles and Versions for AQA, Edexcel and OCR are available, and it’s clearly stated which bits are needed for combined or separate science.
This is designed so you have to do very little in preparation for the lessons. I hope you will enjoy the free time this gives you and your students will benefit from well thought out and detailed resources. Everything is clearly explained and all answers are provided so non-specialist can teach with confidence.
Student self-assessment sheets; I have used these successfully for years in lesson and OFSTED and SLT love them! They show clear progression for students, which can be easily seen by anyone who looks at the books. There are links to resources that students can use at home to improve their understanding if they do not feel confident in a topic.
Starter’s; these are designed to give cumulative learning, within a structured format. Each lesson (apart from the first) starts with five questions about content they have covered in previous lessons. This gives students a chance to review knowledge on a continuing basis (hopefully) leading to deeper learning.
Homework’s; most of these are on line, so you just have to set it for your class and it gets mark automatically. Otherwise there are investigations and activities that require very little marking from you, allowing you to enjoy your weekend.
End of topic tests; have been written to match (as close as I can) the style of the new exam papers. There are foundation and higher versions, each lasting 45 minutes with fully explained answers. The questions have been clearly and thoughtfully laid out to allow students to show off their knowledge to the best of their abilities,. The question ramp as you go through the paper and through the question and a number of maths and multiple choice questions have been included. Estimate grade boundaries have been included.
Worksheets; these have been made to accompany each part of the lesson; you can either use the slides or give out the scaffold to help students who need it.
PowerPoints; have embedded video clips, so you don’t have to find them, answers to all questions and engaging graphics. These have been designed with a clear/non-cluttered style to be friendly to students who have low level of literacy

The new A-Level booklet from AQA has 12 suggested practicals, not all of them work very well.
I have gone through the booklet and done all of the practicals, these are the notes I made as I was going through to help the other teachers and technicians in my school. I hope you find them helpful.
I also recorded each practical as a revision aid for my students
