I am a KS3-4 Physics teacher currently teaching in the North West of England. In addition to physics, I am also pursuing an Astronomy GCSE for my school.
I will only upload items that I am proud of and as such I hope you will agree are of a good quality.

This is a full set of resources needed to teach electrostatics. It's set up as a 50 minute lesson but it can easily be adapted to 1 hour. Designed with AQA specification in mind but can be applied to all electrostatics.
This resource contains both a PowerPoint and an accompanying learning mat/worksheet for the activities in the lesson. The learning mat is designed to be folded and glued into a book.
This is lesson one in a SoW that is designed to "spiral" into AQA GCSE content by year 9. this is an introductory lesson into the types of forces and how do define them.
This resource contains both a PowerPoint and an accompanying learning mat/worksheet for the activities in the lesson. The learning mat is designed to be folded and glued into a book.
This is lesson three in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.
This is my lesson PowerPoint and worksheets I have created to teach the energy transfers topic in the new AQA Physics specification. The worksheets are all ready to be printed as are the mark schemes. It covers both of the required equations for this topic.

This is lesson ten in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.
This resource contains both a PowerPoint and an accompanying learning mat/worksheet for the activities in the lesson. The learning mat is designed to be folded and glued into a book. It is split into two lessons, one for planning and one for the investigation and graph.
This is lesson eight in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.
This is a big bundle of resources - a revision sheet for the whole Electricity topic, two assessments (H and F) with mark schemes, and a Personalised Question Level Analysis that you can complete, so the students can see exactly which questions/topic they struggled on most.
I have two free resources from the SoW if you would like to see how I structure these lessons. Please visit my shop to find them.

This is lesson nine in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.
This is designed to cover two lessons - lesson one, the class will use their results from the resistance of a wire experiment to attempt a graph of results on their own. You, as the teacher will then use the feedback generator provided to assess their graphs and provide detailed feedback (using a spreadsheet that can be printed out on sheet 2 of the excel spreadsheet). Lesson 2 would then comprise of the class reading their feedback and improving or extending their work, whichever is appropriate. This would also be a good point to mark the homework that comes free with this SoW.

This is a fully resourced lesson covering both the positives and negatives of nuclear power as a source of energy, but then goes deeper into the ethics and justifications for where we build them. The main purpose of this is to help develop more higher order thinking about the topic as groups will be tasked to evaluate and justify their choice of site and be able to articulate effective reasoning.
There is also a third task of peer assessment - using a success criteria, the "site selection committee" are then put under scrutiny from the "HM Government" and they have to decide if they made a persuasive enough argument.
It's all made up to be rather thought provoking and fun. Possibly more suited to higher ability in it's current form, but could easily be scaffolded for lower ability classes.
I work in the North West, so unfortunately that's the map you've got! You could easily replace it with your own if you wish with no problems though.

This is lesson two in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.
These resources are designed to be used over two lessons - lesson 12 is the assessment (higher or lower) and lesson 13 is the Personal Question Level Analysis lesson (higher or lower). The PQLA is designed to allow students to look at their tests and RAG rate their ability and understanding of those questions. It also allows for next steps to be decided upon.
These are the last two lessons in the Forces and Pressure topic. This topic is designed as an introduction to AQA Trilogy Physics later in school.
This resource contains both a PowerPoint and an accompanying learning mat/worksheet for the activities in the lesson. The learning mat is designed to be folded and glued into a book. It is split into two lessons, one for planning and one for the investigation and graph.
This is lesson four and five in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.
This resource contains two PowerPoints and accompanying learning mats/worksheets for the activities in the lessons. The learning mat is designed to be folded and glued into a book. It is split into two lessons, one for completing an application of knowledge task regarding a friction investigation, and the other is a feedback lesson where the class will use your input to evaluate and improve upon their work. Also included is a feedback generator - this will drastically decrease your marking workload as it contains pre-written feedback and crucially, how to improve the work.
This is lesson six and seven in a SoW that is designed to into AQA GCSE content by year 9. This lesson goes into the idea of balanced and unbalanced forces and then defines a resultant force.
This is a total of 13 quizzes, with answers that are designed to cover the 23 equations students are required to remember for the AQA specification. I also include exam question style questions, units questions and a few of the given equations as well.
Answers are provided at the end. (sometimes in letter form, sometimes in word form)
I used these as starters once a week with my year 11 classes last year and I kept a running tally of scores for my classes. It really helped cement their equation revision!
At £10, you are getting these starters for less than £1 per resource. They take approximately 10-15 mins to complete and mark, to this is in total over 3 hours of lesson resources.
This is a collection of resources I have developed to aid in improving numeracy skills in a science environment.
Buying all of these resources as a bundle saves nearly 40% compared to their single prices.
This is a bundle of four resources I have made to help with memorisation, manipulation and substitution of equations in the new specification 9-1 GCSE Physics. It contains 13 physics quizzes, the equation list (that you can edit) and a lesson on rearranging equations complete with worksheet. All for nearly half the price of their individual sale prices!
This is a bundle of twelve extended writing questions that can easily fit into most year 8 schemes of work. Biology, Chemistry and Physics are all present here, as are the mark schemes.
The price of this bundle is 50% cheaper than buying them separately!
This is a bundle of twelve extended writing questions that can easily fit into most year 7 schemes of work. Biology, Chemistry and Physics are all present here, as are the mark schemes.
The price of this bundle is 50% cheaper than buying them separately!
This is a series of tailored revision sheets for the new AQA Specification 2016 Physics. Included are different sheets for Trilogy and Combined Science.
This is the first half of the course. The second half will also be bundled when it is uploaded.
