This is a powerpoint presentation that can be used to stimulate debate and allow the students to explore major world issues and topics. There are 51 different topics here and these cover popular debating topics (animal rights, immigrants, democracy) and more obscure topics (about junk food and curfews!) Really useful starter, plenary, tutor time activity, drama activity or in a debating club.

The assembly is aimed at sending the students off at the end of the school year thinking about the future. It focuses on the passing of time and the idea of growth and achievement. The students are encouraged to reflect on their time in school and their hope for the future. It finishes by encouraging the audience to think about how to measure success and what it would look like for them. It is also suitable for the end of calendar year.

This is a fantastic assembly that looks at how we spend our time. This can be used at any time but may be most effective at the start or at the end of the year when the students have an opportunity to reflect on their own use of time. It covers: -Where units of time came from -Why the calendar doesn’t make sense -How the calendar could be better -How people in the UK use their time -What we can learn from the regrets of people who are dying about their lives -Inspirational quotes This is a very popular and thought provoking assembly, and one of my favorites. Highly recommended.

This lesson looks at the issues surrounding quality of life and sanctity of life and get the students to debate, discuss and vote on life and death issues. -It starts with a classic balloon debate (which is both enjoyable and challenging) -It goes on to look at a real life case study of Diane Pretty -It continues with a deep discussion of four real life case studies -It concludes by looking at why human life is so sacred A highly recommended lesson that has always been rated as outstanding or excellent.

This can be used as a stand alone lesson about Easter Island or it can be used in the Fantastic places unit of work (also available in my shop). This lesson looks at Easter Island and how the greed and stupidity of it’s people nearly destroyed the island. This is an important story and can teach us lessons about the world we live in today. The students will get a chance to practice their analytical skills and will have a deeper look at the history of Easter Island. The final task gets the students to use empathy to illustrate the key turning points in the islands history. This lesson includes a bell activity, a starter, main activities, plenary and homework. It also features differentiated activities for the less able. A fun and colourful lesson.

This is an inspirational assembly that looks at the issue of what can we do to make a difference. Some terrific video clips and some really good stories. This can be done at any time of year, but it will almost certainly result in you getting a standing ovation! One of my best assemblies. Highly recommended.

This lesson introduces the students to Scientology and asks the question is it a real religion or is it a cult? It is designed to be an introduction to the faith. It looks at the history, beliefs, practices and controversies surrounding Scientology. This lesson was been commended in a recent Ofsted report and has been praised by staff and students alike for being interesting and challenging. It is a really good start to the ‘Alternative Religions’ unit and gets the students to reflect on their own faith and consider what a religion really is.

This lesson looks at the effects of the crusades. It briefly covers the context of the crusades (what they were, when they took place, why they took place) The lesson has a variety of activities and encourages the pupils to think of both positive and negative effects of the crusades on Christianity and Islam (in Europe and the Middle-East) An excellent lesson.

This lesson explores the Just War theory and looks at several case studies to consider whether or not the War was justified (e.g. WW2, Vietnam, Gulf War etc.) It challenges pupils to apply the criteria set out to determin whether or not these wars (or any war) is justified. It also asks questions about the greater good, human rights and the value of life. A really interesting lesson.

This is a fantastic lesson that introduces Mormonism and asks the question ‘Is Mormonism a real religion?’ The lesson features several activities (and a number from the ‘Book of Mormon’ musical!) It includes key teachings from mormonism, facts and myths about the faith and gets to students to research some of the key features of the religion for a quick test at the end. An enjoyable, fast paced, challenging lesson that has been widely praised in observations. “I belieeeeeeve… that I’ll get my own planet!” NOTE - All the resources are contained in the PowerPoint. The worksheets are on the final few slides.

This can be used as a stand alone lesson about Venice , or it can be used in the Fantastic places unit of work (also available in my shop). This lesson looks at Venice and the reasons it was located in swap, the problems that causes and what the future holds for Venice. The students will get a chance to practice their decision making skills. One of the final tasks gets the students to use empathy to explain what it would be like to live in Venice. This lesson includes a bell activity, a starter, main activities, plenary and homework. A fun and colourful lesson.

This lesson investigates the assassination of JFK and gets the students to examine the evidence to try to answer the title question. This is an interesting and powerful lesson that gets students to challenge the official account and form their own theories as to what really happened in Dallas in 1963. A really good lesson.

This is a fantastic assembly that I used for an interview about refugee week. It has been updated for 2023. It covers the 5 W’s of refugee week, including: -Definitions of refugee, immigrant, asylum seeker -The History of refugees -The reasons why there are so many refugees today -What the future may look like -What we can do to help It also has a fantastic poem that is aimed at making the students think about this as an issue. A well planned, interesting and important assembly.

**This is a fantastic assembly designed to deal with the issue of Gossip or rumours in a school context. ** It was observed by Ofsted and they said it was Outstanding This assembly looks at: -The definition of gossip -Where the term comes from -Why people gossip -What surveys show about gossip in the UK today -What the impact of gossip is -How it can be avoided -6 tips to reduced gossip The assembly can be a straight forward teacher presentation or you can include some audience participation (Q&As, a demonstration of gossip, a quick survey) There are notes under every slide to help the presenter. The assembly should take 15 to 20 minutes. If you are short on time you could skip the video and the quotes. I have also included a follow up activity for form tutors following the assembly to consolidate the key message. All images in this presentation are free to use under a Creative Commons Licence.

This is an outstanding lesson (this lesson has been praised by an LEA inspector, SLT, an AST and it has been highlighted in an Ofsted report). It uses a variety of different activities including a scavenger hunt, a diamond nine and teamwork. The lesson gets the pupils to investigate nine causes for WW1 (from Alliances to Sandwiches!) and the pupils need to find links between the causes and prioritise them. It is a fun lesson but also an informative and chanllenging lesson.

This lesson is most effective in year 7 or 8. Students are asked to write a letter to themselves to explain what they are like and what they want in the future. Then in year 11 (or 13) they open the letter and see how much they have changed and grown since the wrote the letter. A really fun and interesting lesson that shows how much the students grow while they are at school.

This was a survey I created when completing my NPQSL. I made it from an amalgamation of serveal other surveys I had seen used at other schools. It proved to be a useful and a powerful tool. I used it to gather information about how we could improve our transition procedures, but it could easily be adapted to find out what the students think of their school. A fantastic aid to pupils voice in school.
