“Excellent. I would purchase this… Like the variety of tasks, focus on exam skills and questions, extension tasks and review tasks for students to self-assess their knowledge… Covers knowledge, skills and exam questions… Most students would be able to access this and complete it independently, either in school or at home… Covers all the key areas, focuses on the high level of literacy and also covers exam technique.” – A Wallace, Head of History & Peer Reviewer
“I liked this resource. It was consistent in its approach… he teacher activity notes were very helpful… User friendly… It enhances learning by its sheer variety so no student should get bored… Its educational value is to consolidate their knowledge and enhance their skills… The layout was pretty good. It did not feel cramped but trod the tightrope well between too much and too little content… I would buy this as it would save a lot of time.” – L Ashley, HoD & Peer Reviewer
