The topic of this revision session is: ‘Differential educational achievement of social groups by social class, gender and ethnicity in contemporary society’.
It is designed for teachers using the new AQA Sociology specification at KS5. Save significant amounts of money by buying these revision sessions in bundles!
This download contains one of a series of revision sessions that use a variety of mind-mapping, discussion and debate tasks to cover a section of the specification. It includes a fully animated revision session PowerPoint and a set of ‘silent debate’ A3 worksheets [which are a great way to structure group discussions and practice exam planning technique].
This revision session features:
-A ‘grid of learning’ post-it task (to focus students on the day’s topic and refresh their memories of the basics)
-A 'competitive mind-mapping task (which can be completed on the whiteboard or on A3 paper)
-A silent debate task (with 6 x A3 silent debate worksheets in an editable .doc file) [nb. allowing group conversation, instead of silence, is also an effective approach]
-Debates that ask students to move from one side of the room or the other and verbalise a defence of their position in response to a statement or rubric.
-A concluding ‘One thing I am still uncertain about…’ post-it question.
The revision sessions can be used in a number of ways:
-As revision sessions during a revision period of term-time leading up to exams
-Sandwiched between lessons as they are taught throughout the year as a way of solidifying and assessing learning
This session can be purchased individually or as part of various bundles depending on your needs.
Please note: the cover picture depicts some of the activities that make up this revision session, the wording within those tasks is adapted to the topic specified above and may differ from the wording depicted. Contents and tasks may vary slightly between revision sessions. The cover photo is, however, a fair depiction of the contents of the lesson.

Professionally designed for the new EDUQAS / WJEC Sociology GCSE specification (9-1) taught from September 2017. AQA equivalents are also available on TES. This bundle was updated in March 2020 so that all of the PowerPoints are in the standard format and, consequently, more easy to edit than before.
This 20 lesson unit is designed to be a self-contained, comprehensive and complete resource: everything a teacher/department need to teach the sociology of families section of the course.
Each lesson comes in a .Zip file, This file contains:
-A detailed lesson plan: highlighting differentiation, AfL, key-words, SMSC and a timeline of learning activities (.pdf)
-A premium quality, editable, PowerPoint Presentation
-Homework
[-Most of the lessons include a worksheet (double-sided A4 or A3)]
We take considerable time making the highest quality lessons and we believe these are the best GCSE Sociology resources money can buy, positive reviews are greatly appreciated.
Our intention is to have the other units of the new GCSE Sociology course available by June.
Feel free to contact us if you need additional resources creating: godwin86@gmail.com

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
Based on the new AQA Sociology specification and mark-schemes. This is a double-sided feedback sheet for A2-Level 20 mark answers.
It can be use for self, peer or teacher assessment and includes target and correction setting. It is designed for 'tick-box' assessing so as to save the teacher time, with additional space for the student or teacher to write specific targets.
As a Word document, it is easily customisable: if your class frequently struggle with one issue you can update the target setting box and it will save you having to write the same targets again and again.
This download contains practice assessment materials for AQA GCSE Sociology (Education).
It contains 5 exam sections, 5 mark-schemes, and 5 model 12-mark answers.
An ‘exam section’ is half of a full-exam: students should complete it in 50 minutes, making these ideal for assessment lessons.
This download covers the topic of ‘Sociology of Education’ - you can save money buy buying assessment materials for all four-sections here.
Complete units for GCSE Sociology can be downloaded here.
Please note:
These are not official exam scripts, I do not work for AQA: I have aimed to make reasonable practice exam-questions based on the specimin material already provided. All items are editable: if you think the 12-mark model-answers are too intimidating, feel free to reduce them.

This session, based around metacognition learning activities that use sticky-notes (‘Post-It’ notes), focuses on the factors, skills and choices that can enhance learning-power: the aim is to get students to engage in metacognitive reflection in a fun and engaging way.
Students will need an ample supply of post-it notes that they can write on and place on the board. There are approximately 50 slides, comprised of four main styles of activity: short plenary activities are also included between the main tasks.
Simply run the PowerPoint and work your way through: skipping ahead as necessary using the integrated buttons on the presentation. The PowerPoint is designed to be used multiple times in multiple sessions: do not try to complete all tasks in one sitting!
The idea is that you will use a few slides from each activity, as well as the AfL/plenary tasks, in each session: this will keep sessions sufficiently varied to keep students engaged.
The PowerPoint is very flexible: you can use this for short sessions of 10-15 minutes, or longer sessions up to an hour in length.
