I am an experienced Religion, Ethics and Philosophy teacher who has taught 11-18 education for my whole career. I have taught a variety of GCSE and A Level syllabuses but am currently teaching the new AQA GCSE Spec A and AQA A level Philosophy. My intention in creating resources is to support students in understanding the holistic approach to the subject and to prepare them for exams in a way that means that they are well rehearsed in what the examiner will expect from them.

These resources are to be used with AQA GCSE RS students who are studying Specification A. They can be used in the run up to exams to help students practice their exam technique in 12 mark questions. They are also valuable in helping students with their timings. The timings allow for approximately ‘a mark a minute’ which is about right for these papers. There are also planning sheets to help students to build up their answers. These are without a writing frame to allow students to develop their own style of answer.
