What do teachers say about this resource? (7523)

The concept of this is a brilliant one, and engages students in writing tasks in an interesting way... the PSHE elements of this kind of activity tick off the SMSC element of the lessons. There is also plenty here, and it enables students to develop skills which will benefit them greatly in the non-fiction writing exam... engages students with the practical uses of language... Such a good concept, and really good activities.
