Effortless co-teachability! ‘A Level Only’ boxes in AS resources show advanced considerations needed for year 2 exams.
Brilliant structure for each topic:
  1. Clear glossaries making the most complicated of terms accessible.
  2. Overview : major temes summarised including points of discussion and disagreement
  3. Key points: bullet-point notes details the need-to-know content
  4. Key texts/scholars: essental notes for the important background understanding
  5. Year 2 Advanced considerations - see co-teachability!
  6. Student checklists in brilliant question format - doubles as homework questions!
  7. Exam-style questions: challenge and improve evaluative skills.

  8. Exam-style questions come with indicative content and mark schemes so students know what makes a good answer! Optionally use the hints and suggested paragraph structure to support students to product high-level answers

I really like this resource, probably the best one I have seen from ZigZag for the new specification… A great resource that gives students all the information they need to revise in a clear and concise manner… a wealth of knowledge… student checklists are a great idea… students can easily test their knowledge… easily manageable chunks and gives the right level of detail… of great use for students that have missed lessons… the layout is very clear… matches the specification perfectly… All the key thinkers have been included… gives students all the information… with no waffle… Could help alleviate a lot of stress and planning time for teachersWould highly recommend to fellow teachers

What do teachers say about this resource? (9943)

Good for a summary of the key content. It is so thorough it could be used as a substitute for a text book. It could easily be split into specific subunits and given to students in manageable chunks. [...] It is also good that the key scholars from the specification is in the subheadings with other scholars only mentioned in passing. This shows the student the importance of the specific scholars mentioned on the specification. [...] This resource can be used for lower ability students to provide coherent content for each lesson, so that all activities are supported by the key content from this resource. [...] All key aspects of the specification are addressed with additional scholars included as support. [...] Teachers would find it useful, especially non specialists

T Strydom, RS Teacher & Peer Reviewer

The resource is clearly laid out, with some good visual cues. The key words are clearly laid out for each unit and the hints on the exam questions are helpful [...] these will help with revision and marking practice [and] can help teachers know the exam content knowledge that they need to teach and supports learners in revision.
