Welcome to my shop!
I teach a range of subjects and here you can find access to all the lovely resources that I use in my lessons. I use a range of work booklets, activity sheets, case studies and presentations.
Anyone looking for the Unit 3 assignment brief as a practice run through with students then please find attached a copy here. This was the original one from the exam board which I know a lot of people have struggled to find.
Hope this helps,

Unit 1 Changing Awareness of Crime
Learning Outcome 1: Understand how crime reporting affects the public perception of criminality
Assessment Criteria 1.2: Explain the reasons that certain crimes are not reported
The lessons includes the following LO:
Identify reasons why certain crimes go unreported (E-C) Grade)
Explain the reasons for unreported crimes using some examples (C-B Grade)
Describe clearly the reasons why a range of crimes go unreported, using relevant examples and key words (B-A Grade)
Please find attached Level 3 resources for the new specification of Criminology. These resources have been created for post-16 students who are studying the Applied Certificate and Diploma in Criminology. They are suitable for both WJEC and Eduqas exam boards.
The resources attached include both a teacher power point presentation and a student activity booklet. This means that students can follow the lesson easily and the assessment criteria which they are completing is clear. I have designed these booklets so that students feel more guided when it comes to the formal controlled assessment. They can follow the subject material and extend their own learning through the key term homeworks and case studies.
The student booklets include activities such as: thought cloud/witchcraft article and activity/mind map/key terms research
I have linked the lessons to the “Mr and Mrs S” Exam Board Assignment Brief but you can tailor the lessons to any brief that you have selected for your students. Remember that students must acknowledge the assignment brief but not make it all about the assignment brief. They must focus on meeting the assessment criteria set out by the exam board.
Enjoy!
These resources are aimed at Level 3 A level law students. The exam board that I am working with is OCR but these resources can be adapted to any level 3 exam board (e.g. AQA etc).
I have included lesson power points on all three branches of Torts Connected to Land:
Public Nuisance
Private Nuisance
Rylands V Fletcher
I have tried to make these lessons as varied and fun as possible. I have included quizzes, mind maps, key terms and even pictures that the students can use to cut out and stick to their flash cards in order to help them remember key cases.
Hope they help!
This is a bundle of all the teaching resources you would need for the teaching and learning of Unit 3 Crime Scene to Courtroom (the controlled assessment) of the Level 3 course.
The resources provided are for Level 3 students studying Criminology (Eduqas/WJEC spec).
Each lesson contains a power point and booklet for students to write in. I personally, use the booklets to keep track and ensure that students are doing what they should be. As you can’t mark student work until the end of the controlled assessment period- this really has helped me to track student progress. I get students to hand in their booklets after I have finished teaching each assignment criteria. This ensures that they are doing their independent research outside of lesson.
I have based these resources/lessons on the Gareth Hughes Assignment Brief (all the exam material provided by the exam board is FREE on the Eduqas website). I have made links to this assignment brief throughout as practice so that students then know how to apply each section when they are doing the formal controlled assessment (with a brief that they haven’t yet seen).
The resources provide you with booklets, answer plans, activities and much more to teach the whole of Unit 3 with. If you are teaching this for half the year, this provides you with effectively 6 months of teaching resources and it works out cheaper to buy the bundle rather than paying for each lesson individually.
Feel free to message me with any questions as I know that this is a new course! I am now known as the Criminology Guru at my college so I am happy to help.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions for Unit 3 and Unit 4 if you are unsure about anything.

The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 3: Be Able to Review Criminal Cases
AC3.1-Examine Information for Validity
The resources include a lesson power point and a booklet that students can use to take notes in. I have also included a structure sheet with a table that helps students to see how they can set out in section in a logical order.
There are case studies for each source and some articles for wider reading that I have also popped onto the power point (and provided the links to). The BBC article is free to access on-line but I have also put this into a Word Document for ease (gives the students something to read and highlight/take home).
These Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students.
Learning Outcome 2: Understanding the Role of Punishment in a Criminal Justice System
Assignment Criteria 2.1: Explain Forms of Social Control
The lesson power point covers:
-the different forms of social control (internal and external)
-the key theorists for social control
-activities
-homework
Other things included:
-A student work booklet so that students can take notes and par-take in the activities as they go along. This also means that they can take it home and revise the things they have covered in lesson.
-Exam questions
Debate on capital punishment class activity
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions.

I will be putting more resources up for this unit.
This is a bundle of all the teaching resources you would need for the teaching and learning of Unit 4 Crime and Punishment (the externally examined unit).
The resources provided are for Level 3 students studying Criminology (Eduqas/WJEC spec).
Each lesson contains a mixture of engaging tasks. The activities vary from case studies, scaffolding sheets, link to theorists, exam questions, homework and many other things.
I always do an introduction lesson for each unit and I find that this really helps to “set the scene” for what the students are about to learn. I have included these resources in the bundle.
Given the current nature of students learning from home, I have also created a STUDENT REVISION PACK that my students have found really useful. I have set them deadlines for each section so I can see that they are learning and revising from home. I have also set them exam questions and they have taken pictures of their timed essays and emailed them into me.
Feel free to message me with any questions as I know that this is a new course! I am now known as the Criminology Guru at my college so I am happy to help.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions also.

These resources are aimed at A Level law students studying Contract Law. The lessons and activities focus on the following areas:
Contract Terms (express and implied)
Exclusion Clauses
Conditions and Warranties
UCTA and CRA
All relevant legal principles and cases are covered for this topic area.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 2: Understand the Requirements of the Crown Prosecution Service for Prosecuting Suspects
AC 2.1: Explain the requirements of the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) for prosecuting suspects
The resources cover a general intro to the Learning Objective along with the two tests carried out by the CPS when deciding whether or not to prosecute a suspect. They include case study examples, homework, booklet for the student and other class activities.
The booklet can be used in lesson and then the student can use it to equip them when writing up their controlled assessment. I tend to send the booklet power point to reprographics and they staple it in a booklet format for me :)
These resources are aimed at Level 3 students studying Criminology.
Having taught this unit for the first time this year- I found it incredibly useful to do a few general introduction sessions to the overall unit by using one of the briefs as a practice.
It meant that students could confidently discuss things such as police powers and the balance of civil liberties with ease when it came to tackling the formal controlled assessment brief.
I also gave students a summer homework booklet to complete prior to starting the new unit which enabled us to kick start the academic year off with enthusiasm.
I hope these resources help you as much as they have done my Y13 students.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 1: Understand Social Constructs of Criminality
AC1.1 Compare criminal and deviant behaviour
The resources include a Unit 2 general introduction and then a power point that covers AC1.1. The intro lesson helped me to transition the students from a controlled assessment mind set, to an exam mind set which requires more independent revision from students.
I also found it useful to highlight to my students the synoptic nature of the course so reminded students not to forget everything they learned from Unit 1 (all the units are building blocks to the next set of learning and this is why one of the first activities I get students to do is to look at the questions they CAN already answer on the Unit 2 paper using their Unit 1 knowledge).
You will also find a student booklet and homework activities included.
PLEASE NOTE: that the sample exam questions referred within my power point to can be accessed for FREE on the EDUQAS website.
Please free to email me if you have any problems accessing them: rachael.s.roberts@hotmail.co.uk
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 1: Understand Social Constructs of Criminality
AC1.2 Explain the social construction of criminality
The resources include lessons and activities on the social constructs of criminality. They explore the idea that society creates law and therefore crimes in different countries and across cultures are interestingly comparable.
The resources are all linked back to exam questions and the Criminology spec.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 2: Know Theories of Criminality
AC2.1 Describe Biological Theories of Criminality
The resources include label activities, worksheets and a lesson power point on the different types of biological theories. Students can use the templates to help them during lesson or for revision purposes.
The resources are all linked back to exam questions and the Criminology spec.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 3: Understand Causes of Criminality
AC 3.1 Analyse situations of Criminality
This section is building on students’ existing knowledge by using case study examples to analyse for extended exam questions. These resources include a short lesson, research and case studies where students can practice skills on the longer form exam questions.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 2: Know Theories of Criminality
AC2.2 Describe Individualistic Theories of Criminality
The resources include five lessons (as there are lots of theorists to consider for this section) along with research activities, case studies, homework and videos.
I have tried to make this section as fun as possible by incorporating personality tests and interactive things for the students to do.
The resources are all linked back to exam questions and the Criminology spec.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 2: Know Theories of Criminality
AC 2.3 Describe Sociological Theories of Criminality
The resources include lesson power points, case studies, exam practice questions and worksheets.
The resources are all linked back to exam questions and the Criminology spec.
Level 3 Criminology Independent Study Pack
I have put together a booklet using power point. It contains a variety of activities and exercises to encourage students to work from home. I have tried to vary activities as much as possible; there are case studies, exam questions, cut and stick exercises and lots more.
I hope this helps.
I am getting my students to email me portions of it once completed.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 4: LO 4: Understand causes of policy change
AC4.2 Explain how social changes affect policy development
This section considers how policy has been influenced by social changes and attitudes in society. There are quite a few topics under this section which could come up in the exam (I discussed a few things with my class to start with early in the lesson). I focus on two main areas in this lesson (same sex relationships and women’s rights) so that they can see how I examine the social change and then the policy development that goes with it. As homework, I set my class the task of researching 4 other topic areas of their own along with the up-skirting activity.
Hope this helps.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 4: LO 4: Understand causes of policy change
AC 4.3 Discuss how campaigns affect policy development
I have included a power point lesson which gets students to reflect on the campaigns for change they covered in Unit 1. This helped my students to tackle this section better as they then understood how this fitted in with causes of policy change (e.g. Stephen Lawrence and the abolishment of the double jeopardy rule). I had a really good class discussion about this section and we highlighted how the government is often very reactive to incidents rather than proactive. My students were saddened that tragedies such as this had to happen before the government did anything about it.
I have also included an activity sheet and some typical exam questions for this section.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 4: LO 4: Understand causes of policy change
AC4.1 Assess the use of Criminological Theories in Informing Policy Development
This section considers how theories (already covered earlier in the unit) can help to reduce crime. For example, the idea that CBT/pyschoanalysis can help someone overcome long-term trauma or abuse. If long-term trauma or abuse is not dealt with this can often lead to aggression /anger issues and can in some instances sadly result in criminality. This section of the exam therefore explores a variety of those theories (from diet to token economy etc).
I have included a number of activities to help keep students engaged e.g. eat well plate, case studies, examples of crime prevention policies and exam questions linked to this section.
