What do teachers say about this resource? (12531)

Really loved this resource. It gave me ideas I can use in class. It has lots of useful information and covered a lot of content. The detail of the CSP was evident in the pages. Lots of useful facts that I had forgot to teach. There is a lot of useful information and there is so much interact with. I could see myself planning my lessons off it. It covers everything needed in the AQA spec. Loved it. Really engaged with it.

What do teachers say about this resource? (12529)

A comprehensive subject companion that clearly outlines the main issues of Black identity in Britain. The information is accurate and presented in an intuitive format. The product charts the beginning of the publication and it’s target audience all the way though to contemporary issues of digital media and distribution... The getting to know guide offers a clear structure to create a scheme of work around. As a subject lead the product directs the lesson focus in a fluid and logical way... The industrial context section is particularly well written and very informative. I also think the discussion questions are useful for developing oracy in the classroom and critical thinking skills in the students... Clear layout and presentation
