This resource has been useful for me to show students (especially those under 18) how to vote, and what a voting slip can look like. I have also used it on laminated cards as part of an activity when learning about different voting systems; using a direct questioning technique in revision sessions. 'Joe, show us how you would fill in your form using the AV system' 'Amy, how do we vote with FPTP'. You can then challenge the rest of the group to check if the candidate is correct/ to input any corrections.

I originally designed this for the ‘weaker’ students unable to understand the idea of criticisms and researching critics’ ideas about different ideologies. A very short over-view of the nature of this side to politics; no key thinkers of quotes listed, but intended to be used as a bit of a stepping stone document.

This is a fun activity to introduce ideologies to second year students; getting them to think about their own values and the theory behind ideologies and their own world views. It could allow them to later sympathise when learning about political ideologies.

Information about key thinkers and famous quotes from their works. I used this as a matching exercise as a starter for a revision session, but they could be used in a display or something similar.

A C/B grade essay about how liberals have reconciled social reform with individual liberty. Ask students to identify the strengths and weaknesses in the essay.

This is a worksheet put together to fill in gaps left by textbooks at the time regarding the ideological standpoints on education in Britain. Not at all comprehensive, but a decent guide to add to students' individual research.

This group of answers range from a D grade to an A grade; good resource for training the students to understand the mark schemes.
