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 was a survey I created when completing my NPQSL. I made it from an amalgamation of serveal other surveys I had seen used at other schools. It proved to be a useful and a powerful tool.
I used it to gather information about how we could improve our transition procedures, but it could easily be adapted to find out what the students think of their school.
A fantastic aid to pupils voice in school.
Welcome to the Big Summer Quiz 2019!!! Highly recommended by demanding students!
No one wants to do lessons in the final week so why not download an outstanding quiz to help the lessons to fly by? This quiz comes highly recommended and is well made, well designed and well presented.
It includes six rounds:
1 - Celebrity Face Mash up
2 - In the news 2019
3 - Movie Round
4 - General Knowledge
5 - Celebrity Makeover
6 - Music Round
It also includes three tie breaker/bonus questions.
I have included two versions of the same quiz in case you have an older version of PowerPoint.
There are also two mark sheets.
This is a great quiz and is a big favourite of my students who demand a new quiz at the end of every term!
If you like it, please leave a review so others can find it more easily.
Thanks
This is an outstanding assembly and has proven to be perhaps my most memorable and most popular assembly. It has been designed to encourage the students to break out of their comfort zone and take a chance on something new.
It was originally created for year 11 students to challenge them to try revising for their GCSE exams, but it would work just as well with other year groups and for other topics.
This assembly does involve a lot of preparation before hand, but it is worth it when you get the reaction from the students afterwards!
It essentially involves the teacher eating dog food to prove a point! (like all good magicians there is a trick involved with this!)
This has consistently proven to be a roaring success at every school I have presented it at, and it remains my most memorable assembly.
This assembly can be adapted and modifed to make it ‘safer’, but I would highly recommend following the instructions and well… taking a risk on trying something new!
If you use this assembly, please leave a comment!

UPDATED - 12th March 2020
This fantastic Assembly is designed to inform students about the ongoing Coronavirus crisis that is spreading across the world.
It covers:
-Myths and Facts
-Causes of the virus
-The 5 w’s about the virus
-Effects
-Symptoms
-History of pandemics
-Advice to keep safe
An excellent and well resourced assembly that explains the issue clearly.
NOTE - This was created at the beginning of March 2020, so you may need to update the figures on a couple of the slides to give the most up to date information.
Title: Say what you mean and mean what you say
This assembly focuses on getting the students to think about communicating clearly as words have consequences.
It does this by looking at bad translations, famous parables and an amusing story.
It culminates with a hilarious true(ish) story about a lost in translation discussion between a Swiss Priest and an English school teacher.
This is one of my most popular assemblies with the students discussing it long after it has been held and requesting a follow up for a long time afterwards!
This is a good assembly with a strong message.
This is a fantastic twist on the flash cards idea that will prove to be a really useful revision tool in class.
INSTRUCTIONS: There are 28 cards with key words on one side and their definitions on the other side. The twist, no one has a matching key word and definition. So they need to call out their key word and everyone must look at their definitions to see if they have the definition to that key word. If they do, they flip their card over and read out their key word and so on until you go all around the class and back to the first person who read out.
This can get really competitive and forces the students to learn ALL the key words and definitions.
You can make up your own rules (personally I time it, and every time there is a mistake I make them swap cards and start again!).
This activity can easily be adapted to other schemes of work or even other subjects. I have used it for RE, History and Humanities.
A fantastic and useful resource.
This powerpoint (with activities) can be adapted to your own personal use or planner design.
It is designed to help tutor and pupils to ensure they are using their homework/study planners correctly and effectively.
It also helps to promote consistency and efficiency and help to improve h/w recording across our school.
This was a problem at my school until I created this presentation, and now it is much much better!

“Absolutely brilliant!”
(all reviews of my 2019 Christmas Quiz)
My epic Christmas Quiz is back with six brand new rounds including music and movies. It is suitable for KS3, KS4 or KS5.
After a tough 2020 I have decided to make a quiz that doesn’t mention the Coronavirus, lockdown, social distancing or facemasks!
Last year my free Xmas quiz was down loaded over 32,000 times and had over 300 five star reviews (before I had to take it down because of copyright infringement! Ooops!).
This year the quiz is even better:
Six rounds of fun:
ROUND 1 – Celebrity Make Over
ROUND 2 – 2011 to 2020 news
ROUND 3 – Name the movie
ROUND 4 – Sequences
ROUND 5 – General Knowledge
ROUND 6 – TV Theme Tunes
BONUS – 3 x Tie Breakers
PLUS - Free Lockdown Round (WARNING: This does contain references to Coronavirus!)
IF YOU LIKE THIS QUIZ THEN PLEASE GIVE ME A REVIEW!
This is a powerpoint presentation that can be used to stimulate debate and allow the students to explore major world issues and topics.
There are 51 different topics here and these cover popular debating topics (animal rights, immigrants, democracy) and more obscure topics (about junk food and curfews!)
Really useful starter, plenary, tutor time activity, drama activity or in a debating club.
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 well resourced and well explained assembly looks at the history of fire works night, how it is celebrated today and why we celebrate it today.
It also looks at the firework code, the dangers of fireworks and how be considerate and how to stay safe.
It also has a true story to bring home the point that fireworks are not toys.
I have included teachers notes to help to explain the slides.
If you like this assembly please leave a review.
The assembly introduces the students to Red Nose Day
-What it is
-When it takes place
-Why it started
-Who it is helping
-How the students can help
The assembly can be updated for Sports Relief or for Children in need.
If you like this assembly please leave a review.
