Extension Resource Macbeth GCSE English Literature - Edexcel, AQA, OCR

A thesis from a leading Finnish University has been summarised and condensed to make it more accessible; it divides the play into three parts - the divided state of man, the barren sceptre, and laugh to scorn the power of man.
This isn’t a lesson plan, rather a piece of extension material which proved useful for stretching some particularly enthusiastic students.

Conservatives and Paternalism A-Level Edexcel Revision Question
To what extent do conservatives advocate for paternalism?
This is an example practice essay which goes over some of the key aspects of conservatism.
I took Edexcel’s Government & Politics A-Level course in 2019, achieving an A*, and afterwards I studied politics at the University of Warwick.
I would recommend this style of revision - writing out key questions and then doing answers in abbreviated rather than full prose form.
Happy studying!
Paternalism is the idea of government by people who are best equipped to lead and make decisions through birth, inheritance and upbringing. It links to Burke’s notion of noblesse oblige, which is that those who are best off have obligations to those without; obligations of generosity, fairness, etc, and in turn, the masses have obligations of obedience and lawfulness.

First class undergraduate essay on borders, statehood and freedom
Warwick’s PO301 is a final year 30 CAT course available to those with some specialism in politics or political theory - most notably, those taking PPE, PPL, EPP, EPAIS, PAIS, or History & Politics.
This essay was a summative submission and covered the module on freedom and borders. It rejects the argument made by Wellman (2008) that supports the right to exclude.
Wellman’s arguments are also covered in other courses, such as the final-year PPE/PPL course Political Economy of Philosophy and Politics.
The essay achieved a first. Use it as a source of ideas but don’t copy it - not least for reasons around plagiarism - but also because independent thought is what matters, not so much the content of the argument itself.
Muslim Response to Crusades A-Level Early History Crusades - Revision Notes
Edexcel A-Level History: Crusades. I took this A-Level in 2019, and the specification is the same circa 2024.
These notes cover some core notes, as well as example questions on the Muslim response to the Crusader states, alongside for/against. Total 3000 words across 6 pages. Notes on the below questions and some further questions for revision.
To what extent were the Crusader states ineffectively governed 1152-87?
How accurate is it to say the religious enthusiasm of Nur and Saladin was the most important reason for increased Muslim unity in the years 1146-92?
How accurate is it to say the decline of the Crusader states were primarily due to the quality of Saladin’s leadership 1169-87?
How far do you agree 1100-65 the Crusade States became stable and well-governed?
I achieved an A*, with full marks in the first three exams (still an A* in the fourth) and took resources from beyond the core textbooks, for instance, there’s a fair amount from Thomas Asbridge’s books in these notes and my other resources.
Happy studying!
Exemplar EPQ: To what extent was Disraeli a Machiavellian politician?
EPQ question: Benjamin Disraeli ‘had scant respect for probity and integrity in politics - his code of behaviour was truly Machiavellian’. How accurate is this judgement?
I achieved full marks in this piece (54/54).

Please feel free to use particularly for revision on Benjamin Disraeli and Victorian politics. I wrote this when I was 17, before starting university, so the language is often a little clunky! For those studying Disraeli at university, use this as inspiration rather than a strictly accurate journal piece.
