What do teachers say about this resource? (7056)

Absolutely brilliant. It is very clearly focused on the content and assessment approach of OCR... Every aspect of this resource is highly commendable. The standard is so high throughout that to highlight one particular would do a disservice to the rest... The early instructions to learners take an optimistic line and encourage a “can-do” approach... The overall structure of the resource ensures that learners are made to think at every stage... Learners will find that they have a full understanding of the 4 questions themselves and the correct approach to answering them... Overall the resource with proper use will engender both a fresh motivation to revise thoroughly and confidence in technique based on a firm foundation.

I liked this resource.

I particularly liked the use of concrete examples.

It has useful content, clear analysis and good answers.

I also like the practice papers and answers - very useful for mocks.

This resource enhances learning by spelling out the exam process in logical steps. Its educational value is to reassure pupils they are proceeding in the right manner and to allow them to use their knowledge to best effect.

It matches/explores the spec intensively and goes to town on interpretations - an essential part of the spec.

What do teachers say about this resource? (7100)

The questions in the practice papers are really good reflecting as they do in both content and wording the Board’s practice. The mark schemes are also very useful in terms of indicating the Levels of response... this is an exceptionally useful resource... Using this resource will definitely make pupils of all abilities think about both content and skills, and if they use it as intended the quality of their responses will be greatly improved.
