‘An excellent resource for the AQA Change and Transformation component. It is rigorous, comprehensive and stimulating. It is easily the best resource I have reviewed for you so far… The exercises of the key terms will be very welcomed by Ofsted, and they will enable students to build their knowledge and understanding around them. Also, the numerous exercises on “ideologies” such as Gladstonian Liberalism and Disraelian Conservatism help to clarify important areas, but in a stimulating way. I also liked the explanations of “Why this exercise is important” which links them to the specification and the ultimate outcome of the exam… The exercises on economics are of broad value and demystify the field; the exercises encourage critical thinking as SS are required to link ideas and concepts to definitions. Further, the exercises encourage core historical skills to be developed as well as simply knowledge and understanding; such as change and continuity, and cause and consequence. Also, the selection is particularly good on Ireland and women’s suffrage, both of which have direct contemporary relevance and are thus educationally of great use… The key questions and the indicative content are followed through clearly throughout and the especially major areas are covered with varied activities. The extensive work on essay writing skills is vitally done… This is an exemplary resource for every teacher of this AQA specification. They will find it to be of huge value to their students and to themselves in terms of assisting with preparation. Simply excellent.’ – K White, Head of History & Peer Reviewer
