Unit: Unit 2: Philosophy of Religion
Topic: Atheism
Exam Board: Eduqas
Paper: Paper 2
This worksheet is a great little revision activity for A-Level Religious Studies.
Students are asked to write down the ten most important things they can remember about atheism. This helps them to consolidate their notes and knowledge.
This can be used as part of a revision lesson or as a starter or plenary activity. It is also a good homework activity.
Unit: Paper 3: Religion & Ethics
Exam Board: Eduqas
This is a last minute revision lesson on religion and ethics. This is designed for the Eduqas exam board but may suit other exam boards. This lesson is designed to be taught just before the exam but can be adapted to suit.
A printer friendly version is included.
Teaching Note: You will also want to have some copies of past papers available to give to students.
Starter
The starter are 10 simple questions taken from across philosophy. Students can either answer them in their books or you could go around the room and ask students the questions.
Answers are in the notes section of the PowerPoint
Overview of the Paper
Students are given a brief overview of the paper and reminded of the recommended timings for each question.
There are then some top tips for success to help students succeed.
Short Summary of Ethics
Each topic has been summarised on a single PowerPoint slide. You can either teach this, go through topics that students are stuck on or just print the slides out for students to look over. A printer friendly version is also included.
Generic Evaluation Points
These are generic points that can be used when students are stuck and cannot think of anything to write. My students have found these really helpful so I hope yours do to!
Blurt Sheets
Students pick a sheet for the topic they want to revise.
They then:
Write down everything they can remember about the topic in one colour
Swap sheets with the person next to them & then update the sheet with extra information in a second colour
Use their notes to finish the sheet off in a third colour with lots of detail
I also normally give students past papers at this point to look through as well and let them lead what we will do, going round and helping, answering questions and teaching anything that I feel like we need to go over again.
Plenary
Write down four things they remembered, four things they were reminded of and four things they learned

Unit: Unit 1: English Legal Systems
This PowerPoint is a great resource to help with exam practice or to use as starters and plenaries throughout the two years.
Included are 64 5-Mark questions covering every topic studied as part of the Sources of Law element of English Legal Systems.
Each question has a model plan to accompany it.
Note: You may teach slightly different examples so do go through and update with your own examples where necessary
How I Use This Resource
Revision practice: These can be given to students and they can have 10 minutes to answer the question and then self-mark using the model plan as part of revision
Starter/plenary: These can be copied into lessons or thrown on the board as starters/plenaries
Time fillers: Got 10 minutes left at the end of a lesson? Throw a question on the board and get them to do it!
Mock exam planning: They can be copied and pasted into DIRT PowerPoints for mock exams to save you having to plan answers
Independent revision: Students can use them to revise & practice 5-mark questions
Targeted revision: My students often struggle with the 5-markers as they see them as less important so these help them to focus on revision
This is designed to cover potentially any question that can come up but I recommend adding in questions if a new one pops up or one with odd wording appears that isn’t covered in the PowerPoint.

Case and Legislation Lists
These are split into Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3
Tier one cases are the cases students must know. Tier two are the cases they really should know. Tier three cases will help them enhance their essays.

This helps students target their revision and makes the case and legislation load feel less overwhelming.
