This download contains an editable 50+ slide PowerPoint featuring the most important debates relevant to KS4 English classrooms. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly.
Debate topics refer to English Literature, English Language & the value of literacy in general. This tool is suitable for whole-school literacy sessions and can be used both inside the English classroom and in form/tutor sessions.
Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear.
This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include:
“What is wrong with the other position in your view?”,
“Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”,
“Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?”
It is best to encourage students to pick a side rather than float in the middle: but it can also be fun to allow students to change side as the debate progresses, so that students can try to persuade one another to move.
This is a great resource to use at the end of lessons if you have a few minutes left, it can be used as an entire lesson or revision session. It is also ideal for whole-school literacy.

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
The topic of this Philosophy Boxes download is ‘Body Changes’. It is one of a series of PSHE-P4C sessions designed for KS2-4 PSHE students. The download comprises a P4C lesson/session that can be used multiple times with the same group.
The Philosophy Boxes Method is a new approach to PSHE designed for students in KS2-4: it is graphically stimulating, engaging, and fun. This download is also suitable for older students: but the format was designed with younger students in mind. In this context: ‘Philosophy Boxes’ represents a more student-centred ‘debate & discussion’ approach to PSHE issues.
The aim of our ‘Philosopy Boxes’ PSHE sessions is to bring deep, critical thinking to PSHE, exploring PSHE using P4C (Philosophy for Children) debates and discussions. One advantage to the method is that it helps students to practice their social skills through the activities.
The Philosophy Boxes Method presents students with a set of ‘mystery boxes’, when a student selects one of the boxes they are presented with 1 of 21 discussion/debate activities (in 8 different formats).
The presentation has integrated AfL so that teachers can test knowledge at any point in the lesson. There are 10 different AfL slides to choose from.
The design is colourful, animated, fun and engaging: all activities require movement and teachers can decide whether students are expressing their ideas purely verbally or by using post-it notes.
The nature of the design is that it can be used for short sessions (5-10 minutes) or much longer sessions (up to 2 hours!) - it allows for classroom practitioners to be flexible and adaptable. It can, therefore, be used in lessons or as a tutor-time activity.
Choose from out complete selection of our ‘Philosophy Boxes’ PSHE lessons here.
You can also save money by purchasing lessons as a complete 20-session collection here!
This download contains a Personal Learning Checklist for the ‘Relationships & Families’ [Theme A] section of the AQA GCSE Religious Studies course [Thematic Studies]. It includes four different formats.
The download includes 4 different versions of PLC for you to choose from! Each with slightly different reflection/target-setting activities. This means you can give students the PLC at different points in the year without it being too repetitive and boring for them.
These double-sided A4 worksheets are great for:
-Revision lessons
-AfL
-Fostering teacher-student dialogue
-Directed Improvement Reflection Time (DIRT)
-Exam preparation
This is an ideal tool for your students to help them keep track of their learning, manage revision and help you monitor the classes strengths and weaknesses. It serves as a highly efficient form of self-assessment.
The first side is a checklist with two ways for the student to rate confidence for each of the sub-topics and the second side features other useful measures that allow teachers to gauge a student’s confidence and reflective abilities.
The worksheets:
-Allows the student to see clearly what they need to know for the exam.
-Allows the student to communicate to their teacher how they can be best helped.
-Gets the student to analyse their progress in relation to their target grade.
-Encourages students to reflect in a structured manner on their necessary revision focusses.
-Gets students to establish both a revision and an exam technique focus.
This complete lesson focuses on the strengths and weaknesses of each of the sociological research methods (questionnaires, interviews, observation etc). In includes an A3 worksheet and a detailed knowledge hunt: it was made for a 1-hr period but could easily cover a double-period.
This is the fourth of ten lessons comprising our 'Research Methods' Unit for the new GCSE Sociology specifications (designed for AQA but useful to WJEC/EDUQAS). Save over 50% by getting the 10 lesson pack!
This download includes:
-A detailed lesson plan: highlighting differentiation, AfL, key-words, SMSC and a timeline of learning activities (.pdf)
-A premium quality PPT Show (fully animated) that covers the entire lesson (.ppsm & .ppsx formats)
-An A3 Worksheet
-A colorful and comprehensive 20-page knowledge hunt (about the strengths and weaknesses of each research method)
-A Homework worksheet (practice exam question)
We take considerable time making our resources to the highest possible standard, positive reviews are greatly appreciated.

This product includes three double-sided, colour, A4 Worksheets for form-tutors to give to their students.
They focus on three philosophical topics: metaphysics, ethics/morality, and epistemology: each worksheet contains a number of fun little activities to provoke thought, discussion, and debate.
Each worksheet should keep students busy for 10-15 minutes. I advise giving them one each week over three weeks :)
I hope you enjoy!

This download contains an editable 50+ slide PowerPoint featuring the most important debates relevant to Media Studies classrooms: pitched at KS4/GCSE level. It also contains a ‘randomiser’ slide so that debate topics can be selected randomly.
Debates take an ‘agree or disagree’ format: students are asked to move from one side of the room to the other depending on their response to the statements that appear.
All topics are inspired from AQA GCSE specification though this product is relevant to all teachers of the subject.
This format allows teachers to foster debates and discussions between students, it can be helpful to ask students to justify their reasons and use sensible arguments. Questions you might ask include:
“What is wrong with the other position in your view?”,
“Why did you choose to stand where you’re standing?”,
“Why do you think people disagree so much about this question?”

We offer a range of whole-school metacognition resources that aim to enhance metacognitive skills and strategies in students aged 11-16. You can download individual resources or buy our ‘Whole School Metacognition Toolkits’ that make establishing a whole-school metacognition initiative easy.

To encourage reflection on how to boost metacognitive powers
To practice metacognitive skills (such as independent learning & research skills)
To increase vocabulary relating to metacognition and learning-power
To instill a ‘growth mindset’
To cause students to reflect on how they learn best

These mini-worksheets, to be used at the very end of lessons, encourage efficient student reflection on metacognition and what factors have impacted their learning in that session. This download contains ten different designs!
The aims of these five-minute reflection sheets include:
Evaluation of metacognitive power levels and how they impacted learning in the lessons
Identification of metacognitive skills used in the lesson
Self-monitoring and evaluation
Reflection on how life-style is impacting work
They are designed to be printed 4 per A4 page (and then cut/guillotined) so that students are given a 1/4 page worksheet, which is then stapled or glued into their exercise book. Students should complete these mini-worksheets as a form of DIRT (Dedicated Improvement Reflection Time) as the final activity of a learning-session or lesson. They are very quick: taking less than 5 minutes to distribute, complete and glue in.
It is advised that these are printed and guillotined in bulk: saving time and allowing them to use them repeatedly throughout the term. By cycling through all of them, it allows for varied metacognitive reflection to take place at the end of each lesson.
This product alone is a great way to bring metacognition into your school or class-room: there are a number of ways they can be deployed across the school so that students are given a good variety of reflection tasks on a regular basis - creating a culture of metacognitive reflection.
Notes on Printing: we have included ‘Print Ready’ .pdf format files along with the original .doc (Word) ones. When printing from Word, be sure to select ‘4 Pages Per Sheet’. Print one-sided, preferably in colour.
