What do teachers say about this resource? (12427)

An excellent resource, this must have taken a very long while to complete and is very well resourced. It is clearly set out and explained. Worked examples for well explained skills. Teachers can pick out the particular skill they are focusing on and share the explanations and worked examples with their pupils along with the practice questions.
