GCSE Computer Science - SQL Practice (AQA June 2023)

(0)
Taken from the 2023 exam for AQA GCSE Computer Science 8525 spec, I have taken the question apart and made a database using DB Browser for SQLite with questions for students to attempt so that students can understand how the database works and learn SELECT, FROM, INSERT INTO statements too. Updates Updated to fix an error where a student is not displayed in the students table but it is displayed in the worksheet. Updated to now include a basic set of lesson slides with a Do Now Activity. Last updated: 24/01/2025

An essential resource which guides students through the how to revise cycle. With our students getting close to the end with exams, it is vital that they know how to revise and what they need to do to expand their knowledge and pass their exams.

Macbeth - Lesson 1 - The Play

(0)
A useful resource for teaching Macbeth across all age groups. This lesson looks at the difference between a play and a novel and also allows your students to act out a scene from Act 3 Scene 3. It is quite a short lesson however, you could adapt it so that students have to answer an exam question based on their opinion or from a past paper.
