Hi, thanks for downloading and reviewing! The problem you are encountering is likely to be a technical issue which can be resolved by refreshing your browser and re-downloading (i know that it has been as simple as this on the rare occasion that this problem has arisen in the past.) However, if this fails feel free to send me your email address via https://www.facebook.com/createdlive/ and I will happily forward the AO2 resource to you directly. Thanks again, CreatEd.

A well thought out, original resource which, as it states, focuses on the skills students need and clearly links these to the relevant exam questions so that students can understand where they need to apply them. I particularly like the units for A02, 3 and 4 which incorporate video clips and encourage students to apply the skills in a more familiar, modern context - I feel certain this will prove very engaging for my classes. <br />
Holding me back from a five star review is my belief that some units (A01 for example) would be unlikely to take more than a couple of lessons to deliver, especially for more able groups. In addition, and this possibly a technical fault, I can only download 11 of the 13 resources listed (Writing Unit 2 - equality and Pupil Revision Guide A04 were not included in the bundle). If you could sort this out so I can download these as well I would be grateful. <br />
That aside, I am very happy with my purchase and am looking forward to using these creative and time-saving resources in the coming weeks - thank you.

Hi there, thank you for your feedback this is very much appreciated! Also thank you for bringing this technical problem to my attention. In fact, both of the units that you were unable to download were already included in this bundle, however, there must have been technical issue preventing them from downloading. I have removed and re-added both (AO4 Revision Guide and the Equality Writing Unit) Please accept our apologies for this, unfortunately this is an issue on TES's part which we have no control over. Hopefully the issue has been resolved through the action I have just taken. I will be emailing TES to inform them of this and to ensure other buyers do not encounter the same issue. You should now be able to download the missing resources. If you still cannot please leave a comment or message on our page (https://www.facebook.com/createdlive/) and I will ensure that the you have them as soon as possible by emailing them to you directly. Also, at CreatEd we review and add to our resources systematically in response to feedback from experienced teachers such as yourself and following first hand teaching and observation of the lessons. We have made a note of your comments regarding the AO1 unit and will be sure to consider this as we continue to develop this, our most popular, resource! Updates are always reported on our Facebook page. If you haven’t already, please drop ‘like’ our page so that you are informed of updates and can then come back and re-download this bundle to access any future updates and additions free of charge! Thanks again for you positive and constructive feedback, it is very much appreciated!<br />
