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 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 is a fantastic assembly that looks at how we spend our time.
This can be used at any time but may be most effective at the start or at the end of the year when the students have an opportunity to reflect on their own use of time.
It covers:
-Where units of time came from
-Why the calendar doesn’t make sense
-How the calendar could be better
-How people in the UK use their time
-What we can learn from the regrets of people who are dying about their lives
-Inspirational quotes
This is a very popular and thought provoking assembly, and one of my favorites. Highly recommended.
This is a fantastic assembly that I used for an interview about refugee week.
It has been updated for 2023.
It covers the 5 W’s of refugee week, including:
-Definitions of refugee, immigrant, asylum seeker
-The History of refugees
-The reasons why there are so many refugees today
-What the future may look like
-What we can do to help
It also has a fantastic poem that is aimed at making the students think about this as an issue.
A well planned, interesting and important assembly.
This assembly explains the back ground to pancake day and looks at why millions of people eat pancakes on Shrove Tuesday.
-It covers the history of Shrove Tuesday
-The meaning of lent
-The purpose of fasting
-How lent is celebrated around the world (in seven different countries)
-Some fun facts about pancake day
-Why many non-religious people take part in lent
-How they can take part in lent (even if they aren’t Christian)
It’s a well resourced, presented and explained assembly. They students should not only enjoy it but also reflect on their own lives.
This is aimed at KS3/KS4 but could easily work for KS2 or even KS5.
You could also use this in tutor time.
This is an inspirational assembly that looks at the issue of what can we do to make a difference.
Some terrific video clips and some really good stories.
This can be done at any time of year, but it will almost certainly result in you getting a standing ovation!
One of my best assemblies. Highly recommended.
This assembly looks at the problem of Fake News in today’s society and the role it has played in several major world events since 2016, up to the present day (including Brexit, Trump, Wikileaks, Climate change denial etc.)
The assembly covers what fake news is, the history of fake news, where it comes from, how it spreads and why it matters.
It also features a quiz where the students will get the chance to see if they can spot the fake news stories out of ten unlikely sounding stories.
Finally the assembly links fake news to gossip and rumours and gives tips as to how to spot fake news (both online and in the classroom).
This is a fun but comprehensive assembly.
The assembly is aimed at sending the students off at the end of the school year thinking about the future.
It focuses on the passing of time and the idea of growth and achievement.
The students are encouraged to reflect on their time in school and their hope for the future.
It finishes by encouraging the audience to think about how to measure success and what it would look like for them.
It is also suitable for the end of calendar year.

This assembly was originally desgined to introduce changes to the school rules, but it can be easily adapted to look at school rules or laws in society.
It would also be useful to use as tutor time activity.
The assembly looks at the issue of injustice and how we can respond to it through the case study of Maya Angelou.
It tells the story of Maya Angelou and her life as an inspiration to the students.

**This is a fantastic assembly designed to deal with the issue of Gossip or rumours in a school context. **
It was observed by Ofsted and they said it was Outstanding
This assembly looks at:
-The definition of gossip
-Where the term comes from
-Why people gossip
-What surveys show about gossip in the UK today
-What the impact of gossip is
-How it can be avoided
-6 tips to reduced gossip
The assembly can be a straight forward teacher presentation or you can include some audience participation (Q&As, a demonstration of gossip, a quick survey)
There are notes under every slide to help the presenter. The assembly should take 15 to 20 minutes. If you are short on time you could skip the video and the quotes.
I have also included a follow up activity for form tutors following the assembly to consolidate the key message.
All images in this presentation are free to use under a Creative Commons Licence.
The assembly gives the history of Christmas and why there are so many strage traditions involved.
It explains the pagan roots, the links to Christianity and how it has evolved to include a wide number of strange customs and traditions.
The main part of the assembly features a fun quiz that the students can take part in. I get the whole year group to take part in a fun group activity.
This is a really really good assembly!
If you like this assembly please leave a review.
An excellent lesson that considers fears and worries and what we can do about them.
“we have nothing to fear but fear its self”
The students will reflect on their fears and what they can do about them.
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.
UPDATED - 12th March 2020
