What do teachers have to say about this resource? (9166)

'Thorough and well designed... Pushes (gifted and talented students) to conceptualised responses which evaluate ideas and context... The exam style questions with the beginnings of exemplar answers are invaluable as models for students... The resources which deal with contextual ideas and literary comparisons with other texts are particularly useful for gifted and talented students to push for the higher grades.' K Newitt, Teacher and Independent Reviewer

'I liked that this could easily be made into an independent learning booklet, which would be excellent for the top grade students... I liked the general band sheet e.g. the basics of what a student has to do to achieve a grade.' J Sallabank, English Teacher and Independent Reviewer

'An excellent resource! Very thorough and with a good range of detailed activities... I like the ways it’s organised – it will be very useful for more able students. It’s great to find a resource that does not patronise GCSE students! I’d definitely use it in my lesson planning.' A Powell, English Teacher and Independent Reviewer

A very interesting resource, which would benefit the top-enders... It would work as an independent stretch and challenge activity booklet, or could be embedded into class teaching to ensure a well-rounded approach to the novella. The text is well-informed, and provides some very interesting critical perspectives on the text... I also like the creative elements. It's all too easy to teach to the exam, but this provides a wealth of ideas which can ensure students remain engaged with the texts... I like the critical perspective quotations which are dotted throughout. This encourages the top end to engage with the novella on a critical level, as this conceptual understanding is what is required to hit the very top. I like the encouragement to read more widely than just the text, and the fact that this is backed up with where students should be looking and which texts to explore, is very helpful... A really good resource on the whole, with lots of useful activities!' K Chanter, Teacher and Independent Reviewer
