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

What do teachers say about this resource? (9797)

A useful, concise and easy to navigate resource, which students will benefit from and teachers will find supportive to guide their learning. I like the clear layout, with the inclusion of a glossary at the start of each theme and reference to key scholars at the end. Beginning each theme with the Eduqas overview for each theme is also handy for students to put the content into context

What do teachers say about this resource? (9796)

A valuable, clear and concise resource, which is logically structured and provides a useful reference for deliverers and learners alike. The revision summaries provide pertinent references to particular scholars, giving a starting point for learners to further explore philosophers. [...] The concise nature of the resource makes it accessible for all users and it is well matched to the specification. Inclusion of key terminology and key scholars at the start and end of each theme is an excellent idea, which students would find beneficial. Exam help at the end of each Theme is great, as are references to the Y13 course.

What do teachers say about this resource? (9903)

An aspect of the course that students find difficult is the number of theories and philosophers that need to be learnt. This resource is very useful in terms of laying these out clearly and summarising them into bite–sized chunks. For both higher and lower ability students, it could help them learn the basics, from which they can then develop and augment their learning according to individual abilities. [...] The resource lays out the ideas in clear, modern English and in several places gives examples with which students can relate. This can act as a useful bridge for students as they can use the resource to grasp the basic concepts, and then move to original sources or other resources to augment their knowledge and understanding.

What do teachers say about this resource? (9902)

The resource is useful in summarising the main points of the syllabus. As the official textbook can sometimes be confusing for students, this provides a clear outline of the theories with strengths and weaknesses. The resource follows the syllabus, making it easy to use alongside the textbook and other resources. Although this is a revision guide [...] I think that the resource could also be used alongside the textbook during the learning stage. Students can use the resource to get the main ideas clear in their minds but be encouraged to complete the additional reading to augment their learning. The main difficulty I have encountered in teaching this specification is that students become confused as to ‘which bit belongs where’. This is an extremely useful resource to help them gain a clear overview of the different sections. In several places, including the mark schemes, examples are given and explained. This is an area where students often struggle, either thinking of examples or being able to apply them. The hints for answering the practice questions are useful as students frequently report not knowing how to ‘start’ or how to lay out their essays
