“What a fabulous resource!! The text book is much more ‘user friendly’ than many others I’ve used in the past. Diagrams support key information in a visually stimulating way for both students and teachers. There are numerous tasks throughout, including many extension tasks to cater for your higher ability students who want to take their learning one step further. Will certainly be using this resource from September! Thank you!”
“This looks great for all teachers, especially teachers inexperienced at GCSE level. Breaks down key concepts into manageable chunks to allow recall and retention. The book provides a less complex approach compared to other GCSE OCR books. Great addition to my book collection.”
