Teaching resources


Our history section covers an ever expanding list of uniquely designed resources, which are proven to be effective for students of all abilities.

The resources are created for a specific exam board, rather than the generic books currently in the market.

Most of the resources include an extensive set of notes, specific to the exam board with relevant exercises to reinforce knowledge and understanding in addition to exam style questions.

Our format lays out information in a specific way allowing students to easily access the information they need when , is linked to the exam questions e.g. causes and consequences.

Furthermore for many topics we have included a list of recommended media, including our own youtube channel: GCSE History.

The combination of resources and the website should provide all the materials needed for successful, challenging lessons.

A collection of 34 Cold War pictures and images.

Use these in a variety of ways to reinforce knowledge and understanding including:

1. Individually or in pairs, students explain the picture/image in the context of Cold War (research time can be given)
. Get the students to group together based on certain criteria:
. Topic e.g. Germany, Cuba, Arms Race
. Dates e.g. 1950s, 1960s

2. Students to form pairs or small groups and explain how their picture/image connects with the other pictures

3. Lay the pictures out and ask the students to go round and contribute (write) one piece of information on as many pictures as they can. This can be done in small groups – each student with a different colour pen (see who contributes what!)
