I sell resources to help you save time. As teachers we want to spend as much time making the lessons we spend with students as inspiring as possible. Therefore less time planning and marking, more time doing!

Need a way of differentiating work in a revision lesson? Look no further. Student led differentiation on one 'plate' with our Dinner Menus. Students complete the appetizer together then select a starter, main, and have the option of a dessert. Starters are also sub-differentiated (low, medium and high) and a range of different mini activities for the main. Really useful, really simple and really really effective. Best bit? It is all done for you, no work necessary.
This revision session has several knowledge and application tasks for an approx. 1 hour lesson. Students can complete each task together or on their own, mark their own work and make improvements. It is linked to the AQA 2016 Science GCSE and does not require you to print out any resources (unless you want to). All on the ppt slide!

They are not formatted with any particular design so that you can copy and paste them into your school’s powerpoint layouts.
This is a part of a series of lessons I am making, based on the idea that when you download resources from TES you often have to reformat to your school’s own powerpoint layouts. This can be very time consuming as often the layout significantly changes. These are made on the basic layout of ppts so that there is minimal disruption to the layout.
They are not designed to present straight to student’s but a much cheaper alternative - they are for you to make your own.

This document contains over 100 multiple choice questions (AND ANSWERS) from the AQA Biology GCSE Homeostasis and Response. There is a separate resource for the nervous response.
I’ve put together a series of multiple-choice question worksheets designed specifically for secondary school science teachers. These worksheets serve a variety of purposes and are particularly useful for;
low-stakes assessments
Assessment for Learning (AfL)
recall of key concepts - strengthens memory recall and reinforces learning
allow teachers to gauge student understanding effectively
immediate feedback
Each worksheet includes a range of carefully crafted questions covering various topics within the science curriculum. I’ve ensured that each question aligns closely with the learning objectives and standards, providing a comprehensive review of the material.
To streamline the assessment process for teachers, I’ve included the answer key with each worksheet. This allows teachers to quickly and easily grade the worksheets, saving time and effort.

What This Document Is & Why It’s Useful
This Excel document contains Biology exam scripts, not full written answers, but key words and phrases that students should use in their responses to match the official mark scheme language. Includes ALL 8 topics for AQA A Level Biology, matched against mark schemes from 2016-2024.
What Is a “Script”?
A script is a set of subject-specific terms and phrases commonly found in mark schemes. Using scripts helps students:
Use the correct scientific terminology
Structure answers the way examiners expect
Avoid vague or incomplete responses
Maximise marks, especially on longer “Explain” and “Describe” questions
Why Download It?
Ideal for revision, exam prep, or essay planning
Helps students memorise precision terms needed for top grades
Allows teachers to build model answers or peer-assessment checklists
Covers core topics from the A-level Biology syllabus
This is an essential tool for students aiming for high exam performance and for teachers looking to reinforce exam-specific language.
