I am a science teacher in Liverpool and have been head of department and senior leadership. I have put resources on here that I know will be beneficial to both individual teachers and middle managers. I'm aware of the time constraints and the resources are to reduce workload as well as inform.

This is lesson 8 of a set of 10 lessons that cover 4.6.1 of the new GCSE AQA Biology curriculum. It follows the Oxford book chapter 13 in its chronology.
Each lesson has an interactive PowerPoint, a pupil worksheet(s) linked to the work in the PowerPoint and a linked past paper question with mark scheme. The PowerPoint has a starter that leads on from the previous lessons learning. The Student worksheet incorporates the learning in the lesson. The worksheets can be used to show progress and/or be cut up and stuck in books to avoid unnecessary diagram drawing etc. and use the time for deeper understanding.
The lessons can be bought individually or as a bundle for the lot.

This AQA Additional Paper Analysis Tool will collate the 'mock' results and using the actual grade boundaries will give a grade for a) the whole paper, b) individual grades for the Biology, Chemistry and Physics aspects and c) will show the levels of progress the student has made.
This has been invaluable as a monitoring and intervention tool to target individuals and classes that are falling behind.
The screen shots to see how this looks when populated can be downloaded free from my page.
Bespoke resource that was originally written as a science project based curriculum for year 7. It could be used in primary for a project based activity that should take at least 10 hours to complete.
It covers ecology, food chains, fossils, predator prey relationships. classification and adaptations of animals for survival.
Lesson plans, PowerPoints, & worksheets are all included. There are some simple practicals (like making a fossil included).
My pupils loved this project.
Since the declaration that GCSE Science pupils wont be able to use equations sheets in future exams, I have been thinking of a system that will help them learn the equations and help staff in facilitating that learning. I have devised this. It is supposed to be used as a starter / plenary for pupils to go over and over and try to implant the equations over time. I will use it in every lesson, parrot fashion for success!
This is not board specific as they all will need to learn them, and can be used for the current legacy GCSE students too as a revision resource.
This PowerPoint has 10 multiple choice questions on each of the following aspects, SI UNITS, Kinetic Energy, Power, Gravitational Potential Energy, Efficiency and Specific Heat Capacity. The PowerPoint is interactive and not linear so you can jump to any sets of questions from the home page and do them in any order.
If you would like to have a look at what it looks like there is a free demo that just has the SI questions.
These take some time to make, but I will group the other equations together as I have for the energy equations. I have used the template for my ABCD cards for this endeavour, but you don't need those to utilise these PowerPoints. Be patient, I'm going as fast as I can.
Enjoy.
*If the person who bought the previous version (without the Specific Heat Capacity) leaves a comment with their e-mail, I will send you this newest version)

Here are 10 logic puzzles that can be used in science or maths. They can be used as starters,plenaries or homework.
The idea was for them to be used to get the students to think logically and work through to see the process in a fun way. The snooker ball may need to be explained to some students as they might not know the values of the coloured balls.
This set consists of 8 worksheets -
1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Organelle Jobs
3. Specialised Cells
4. Onion / Cheek Cell Experiment Sheet

8. Plant Tissue & Organs
The worksheets will work for both KS3 and GCSE (maybe even KS2 high flyers). They are colourful and can be used as stand alone sheets or cut up and pasted into books to avoid diagram drawing.

If you get lists in different name formats - Joe Bloggs or Bloggs, Joe or Joe in one column and Bloggs in another column... and its sends you out of your mind as you want them all in the same format, then this little tool will do it for you.
Copy the list of manes in the format you don't want and use the tool to split or merge the names to your preferred format and then re-paste the list.
Dead easy and will save you tons of time not to mention your sanity.

This is the full PowerPoint, but a free demo version only has the questions for 'Acceleration' questions, but you will get a good idea of what the paid product will be like. The GCSE PHYSICS Speed Equations full can be found in my store. It has questions on SI Units Questions, Speed/Distance/Time (v=d/t), Acceleration (a=v/t), Force?mass?Acceleration (F=ma), Kinetic Energy (1/2 m v^2), Wavelength/Frequency (v=ƒ λ) and Momentum (p=mv) HIGHER TIER Only.
There are another demos and full powerpoints on Energy Equations and Electricity Equations on my page. I have used the template for my ABCD cards for this endeavour, but you don't need those to utilise these PowerPoints.
