This is a really useful, well laid out resource that students and myself would find invaluable to prepare for AS and A-Level examsThe activities are very engaging and active for students and would work great all year round and not just at exam time. The essay planning grids are brilliant and really engaging for students. They know exactly what is being asked from them with one of those grids in front of them. A really valuable resource. This will be incredibly useful for me and my students will love it.

An excellent resource. It catered clearly for both AS and A Level papers.

I particularly liked the depth of the resource. Following its advice would be an ideal first step to an A*.

The resource enhanced learning by consolidating content but also improving essay and source skills step by step.

Its educational value is to provide material and then analyse it extensively, more so than in examiners’ reports or other revision guides/textbooks.
