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.
All resources
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 2 EXAM UNIT- Criminological Theories-AC2.1 Lesson & Activities
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.
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 2 EXAM UNIT- Criminological Theories-AC1.2 Lesson & Activities
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.
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 2 EXAM UNIT- Criminological Theories-AC1.1 Lessons
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
Bundle
Criminology (New Spec) UNIT 3 Crime Scene to Court Room WHOLE UNIT BUNDLE
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.

Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 3-AC3.1-Examine Information for Validity-Lesson & Student Booklet
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).
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 3-AC2.5-Lay People in Criminal Cases-Lesson PP & Booklet
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 2: Understand the Processes for Prosecution of Suspects
AC 2.5: Discuss the use of Lay People in Criminal Cases
The resources include a lesson power point and a booklet that students can use to take notes in.
There are also a couple of videos for students to watch within the PP which helps them to visual the use of Lay People within the Criminal Courts.
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 3-AC2.4: Influences that Affect Criminal Cases-Instructions & Activities
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 2: Understand the Processes for Prosecution of Suspects
AC 2.4: Assess Key Influences Affecting the Outcomes of Criminal Cases
The resources include:
A short lesson introducing different ideas on how a jury can be affected during their decision making.
A short booklet for students is also included to help them set out their work for the controlled assessment.
An independent activity sheet that helps to guide students on where to look for key influences.
An article by the BBC.
An acivity sheet on the R V Young case.
Having spent many teacher-led lessons on this unit, I decided to switch up tactics and make the students do some research and work of their own. These lesson resources helped to give me a breather as well as set my students up on the right track.
Giving them some ideas on case studies to use that are not included in the text book has really helped them to vary their work (rather than just regurgitating what is in there already).
The link for the BBC article is on the power point and is FREE to access on-line but I have also included a copy on here for ease.
Criminology (New Spec)Unit 3-AC2.3: Rules of Evidence -Lesson & Student Booklet

This lesson looks at the rules that govern the use of evidence during the court trial process. A lesson power point and student booklet has been provided so that students can follow along by taking part in the written tasks/activities.
The lesson resources address the following objectives:
*Explain the rules of evidence in relation to relevance and admissibility
*Describe the rules on disclosure of evidence (and exceptions to the rules on hearsay evidence)

Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 3-AC2.2: Describe the Trial Processes-Lesson &Booklet

Criminology (NEW SPEC)-Unit 3-AC1.2 Investigative Techniques-Lesson PP & Activities
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 1: Understand the Process of Criminal Investigations
AC1.2: Assess the usefulness of investigative techniques in criminal investigations
The resources start with a peer assessment of AC1.1 (this acts as a nice starter activity and gets students thinking about the structure of their controlled assessment).
The resources then show students how to “assess” the usefulness of investigative techniques through a class activity. The class activity consists of three case studies where students are expected to put themselves in the situation of an investigator (I printed the cases studies out on laminate and then got students to sit in groups and make posters). The students must decide what techniques would be better suited to the case at hand. This really helped my students to tackle AC1.2 with more confidence and they came out of the lesson with a clearer idea on how to actually “assess”.
I have also included an instruction booklet that students can use as guidance for their practice controlled assessment. I tend to send the booklet power point to reprographics and they staple it into a booklet format for me :). My students like this as they have a clear idea of how to set their work out.
PLASE NOTE -that the Brian Keating DNA case study activity mentioned on the power point is FREE and is available to ALL to use on the Napier Press website.
Criminology (NEW SPEC)-Unit 3 Crime Scene to Court Room -AC1.1 Assessment Structure

Learning Outcome 1: Understand the Process of Criminal Investigations
AC1.1 Evaluate the Effectiveness of the Roles of Personnel involved in Criminal Investigations
You will find a useful structure for students to follow on the attached power point.
It really helps if you get students to complete the summer homework booklet also available on TES under Introduction to Unit 3.
Criminology (NEW SPEC)Unit 3 Crime Scene to Court Room -An Intro to Unit 3 & Preparation Homework
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.
Criminology -NEW SPEC Level 3- A Quick Short and Sweet PP for Open Day
This power point is what i use on open days to quickly run through with parents and potential students. It explains what Criminology is and how the course is broken down. I do a quick and fun “sample activity” at the end to give students an insight into the course.
I have found this useful -rather than explaining to each person what Criminology is.
Hope this helps!

The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 1: Understand the Process of Criminal Investigations

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 into a booklet format for me :)

Criminology Eduqas/WJEC- Level 3 (New Spec)Unit 1 - Campaign for Change Lesson Resources
Attached are a variety of teaching resources that helped me to assist students with their chosen campaign for change.
I found that lower ability students really found the plan useful as a scaffolding device to help them set out their own campaign.
I have also included the instructions i gave students on putting together their bibliography as some had never written one before.
Some students used the person template to design their own t-shirts and wrist bands etc.

A lesson on evaluating crime statistics for AC1.6 for Unit 1.
A Level Law- Revision Notes for Occupiers Liability (1957 Act and 1984 Act)
Please find attached key notes aimed at Level 3 Law students.
My students find this particular area of law difficult to remember so I have created these notes to help them re-call the key points from both Acts of Parliament.
I have also included some key evaluation points to help them answer essay questions.
