I provide resources for a range of Humanities subjects, mainly Sociology, Politics, and History, but also some Geography, Media Studies and Global Perspectives.
My resources have been the basis of my students achieving a number of Outstanding Learner Awards from Cambridge International Exams.

This is a detailed, fully resourced and scaffolded lesson on the Chilean Coup in 1973 and the US’ role and influence in this. As well as looking at the causes, consequences and events of the Chilean Coup, it also considers different perspectives and influences, as well as a comparison with Cuba. All told, there are eight activities for students to complete, along with plenty of extension, conceptual and discussion questions. Designed for IB but can also be adapted for other curricula. The final activity is a 15 Mark Paper 2 Essay, for which there is a planning proforma and feedback sheet.
This lesson is easily adaptable and editable. However, it is also good to go as soon as you download it. It is completely suitable for online or in-person learning. Relevant reading is also included.
Links to the videos are in the notes section of the PPT.
This is suitable for AQA A2 Sociology and CIE AS Sociology. The powerpoint is adapted from something I found and updated to include some mention of Trump and Theresa May and generally make it more accessible to A-Level students. Some knowledge from the teaching perspective about various things is assumed.
This is predominantly designed to work in a UK school but should be accessible around the world.
Card sort task sorting out practical, ethical and theoretical factors.
I ensure students have this in front of them at all times when going through the research methods.
A load of resources plus two essay plans suitable for Marriage an Divorce patterns. Suitable for AS Sociology primarily, although some could be used for GCSE or IGCSE.
Essay plans are for CIE but could easily be adapted.
“Sirrrrrrrr… can you do us a thing with all the case studies in?”
Erm… no. You can do it yourself.
Should be handy for revision.
Probably can be adapted for other subjects.
A rather quite simple lesson teaching Postmodernist interpretations of the Media through Pokemon GO!
Capitalise on the fad from a few years ago (Yr 13 students will no doubt remember it from earlier in the school). Get them to download it on their phones and tell them to go catch Pokemon for 15 minutes. See how they get on.
Show some YouTube news clips about people getting into trouble, then read the texts and complete the table.
Presentation and some tasks on Marxist views on the Media.
After connotave codes on the presentation I show some videos of Ads. John Lewis, McDonalds, Special K etc to emphasise the points.
