Fantastic, really this will save so much work for teachers. There are so many activities here it represents really good value for money and I'm really impressed by it [...] It's very thorough and puts a lot of emphasis on sacred texts which seems to be what the exam boards are after at the moment. The thoroughness of the research that has gone into these resources would take a normal teacher many hours to research and put together. This is realistically over 60 hours worth of work so this is excellent value

I like the exam style questions and the broad selection of activities. The layout is good and professional and I like the clear instructions to both teachers and students. The work is pitched at a good level for my grammar school students and is not too 'dumbed down'... very good value for money
