These are my old AQA specification resources. They still cover all of the same content, and have assessments, group activities planned into them. So lots of lesson ideas. I am in the middle of tweaking and adapting these to the new specification, but these lessons are a great starting point for a non-specialist (and cheap!)

AQA New Specification 9-1- Lesson5 School Diversity. I used this lesson as an opportunity to get the students to work in groups to produce either a presentation on sugar paper, a power point presentation or a presentation using the Ipads. It worked really well and I actually got some great display material from it. Alternatively it’s great as a homework activity.

AQA New Specification 9-1- Lesson 4- Looking at the first education act, right the way through to the Butler Act and the Tripartite System
