Hi welcome to my shop!
I'm currently Head of Humanities, but I've also been head of department at a number of other schools, not to mention head of year. So I have a lot of high quality resources to share.
I take real pride in trying to ensure my resources are well presented, clear, easy to use and of course challenging and engaging for the students. They have taken me a lot of time to make, but hopefully they will save you a lot of time.
If you have any feedback then please review me!

This is a geography SoW primarily aimed at KS3 but can be adapted to suit KS2 or KS4.
The bundle contains eight lessons, one h/w booklet, one revision lesson and one assessment lesson. All are packed full of high quality resources and challenging (but fun!) activities.
Please down load the Free lesson on the North Pole to see what the standard of the lesson is like.
A well made and well structured SoW.
This is a terrific lesson that challenges the pupils to create their own brand new religion.
The lesson can be used as a stand alone lesson, or as part of the ‘Alternative Religions’ SoW.
The lesson sets up an imaginary world where they get the opportunity to create their own unique religion based on what they have learned from their R.S. lessons. They work in groups to complete this task, and then present it to the class. The groups will then evaluate each others presentations and relgions (for some peer assessment).
This lesson could be one, two or even three lessons.
This is a useful look at an example of colonialism.
It investigates why Britain would want to colonise India and what the impact was on both countries as a result of this imperialism.
The students need to become ‘experts’ in one areas of this debate, and then teach the other students what they have learned.
A good stand alone lesson, or it can be used as part of a SoW on either colonialism or the Industrial Revolution.
It is also important to help the students to consider the long term ramifications of colonialism on Indiad development and why it still matters today.
This lesson explains Chrsitan attitudes towards drugs and alcohol using Christian teachings, UK law and morality to explain what the attitudes are and how they developed.
This is a well resourced lesson that is suitable to be used in RE, citizehship or PSHE.
It can easily be adapted for different year groups, although it is Primarily aimed at GCSE students.
A fun and fascinating lessons what will get the students to think and ask good questions.
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 is an interview lesson (so is an outstanding lesson)
It covers the issues of safety in the community (and at home) and gets students to investigate threats.
They need to come up with solutions/advice as to how to deal with threats.
They also need to write a poem/rap to demonstrate what they have learned.
The assessment is source based and uses the 2016 Edexcel GCSE sources paper.
The lesson includes an exam paper, a sources sheet and a mark scheme.
Only four of the six questions that would be in a real GCSE paper are used as the assessment needed to be less than 60 min. I would suggest giving the students 10 min reading time prior to the assessment.

This lesson looks at the many reasons why the police were unable to successfully track down Jack the Ripper.
-The lesson looks at the ‘From Hell’ and ‘Dear Boss’ letters.
-The students put together a timeline of events of 1888
-It looks at Jack’s MO
-The students us Jack’s MO to decide which of the various murders carried out in East London in 1888 were carried out by him
-Finally the students will have to assess which of the reasons why the police failed were the most significant.
This is an excellent lesson which students should enjoy (and they will learn a lot about policing techniques in 1800s).

There are two parts to this lesson and it is recommended that you take a couple of lessons to complete all the activities.
The first part is a revision lesson (where the students are given guidance as to what to revise and how to revise)
The second part of the lesson is to help the students to prepare for the new style of assessment using another example (the British colonisation of Australia). It includes the new style of questions from the 2016 Edexcel Source based paper. It also includes indicative answers.

In the long run did Jack the Ripper actually have a positive impact on London? Yes or No?
Students will try to answer this question by researching the topic and then teaching one another.
Students will look at the problems in East London at the time and whether or not those problems were fixed (and why).
If you like this lesson then please leave a review.
The purpose of this lesson is for the students to look at the five victims of Jack the Ripper and identify similarities between the victims.
They then have to act as detectives and try to spot patterns in Jack’s behaviour to try to prevent future murders.

This lesson looks at sources from the time of Jack the Ripper to understand why it was so difficult to prevent these crimes let alone catch the killer.
The students will learn how to analyse sources and work on key the key historical skill of source analysis.
The focus of the lesson is on inferences with the students using original sources to learn why solving crimes in the Victorian period was so tricky.
An interesting and challenging lesson that the students should enjoy. It is also good preparation for the end of unit assessment.

This is an assembly to explain the gender pay gap in society today.
-It covers why there is a pay gap
-What are the causes of the gap
-How equal the UK is compared to other countries
-What we can do to fix the pay gap
-And it investigates Iceland (the most equal county in the world)
The assembly finishes by getting the students to think about the gift of education and what they can do to make the UK a fairer society.
The assembly should take between 10 and 15 minutes to complete and is always very popular.
This is an outstanding and inspirational assembly.
An interesting lesson that helps the students to understand how perceptions of war have changed over time.
It looks at the reasons why so many young men were willing to fight for their country and why the recruitment of soildiers for the army has had to change over time.
It also compares what we know about war today with what the public knew in 1914.
This particular lesson also focuses on recruitment posters. It gets students to analyse the posters and then create one of their own.
A strong and fascinating lesson.
This lesson gets the students to investigate life in the Warsaw Ghetto in WW2 through a number of Primary and Secondary Sources.
It tests the students source skills and also builds on their knowledge of the Holocaust and WW2.
This is a really useful lesson if you want the students to work on their source analysis skills.
It is both a powerful and a challenging lesson.
This is a companion to my other lesson on population growth in Africa, and it looks at why urban population is growing so quickly in Africa.
-It covers issues such as rural to urban migration.
-Overpopulation
-The future of Africa
-Problems caused by this population growth
An interesting and well resourced lesson
This is a really good lesson aimed at getting the students to consider the evidence for life after death and to formulate their own opinion of what happens after you die.
It asks the question: ‘What do you think happens after you die?’, it looks at possible evidence (including Near Death Experiences, Ghosts and Mediums), it also considers religious ideas about life after death.
A really good lesson that will stretch and challenge your students. This resource also includes a starter and a h/w.
It is aimed at KS3 but could easily be adapted for another key stage.
This is the end of unit assessment for my fantastic places SoW.
It is set up like a GCSE paper but designed for KS3 students.
It includes a differentiated version, source booklet and mark scheme.
This can be used and adapted to make your own similar assessments.
A really useful resource.
