This resource pack was so entirely useful! This aspect of teaching A-level - the essay skills component - was probably one of the things I was most worried about when teaching this for the first time. As in the other CPD packs, Melanie outlines links to the exam specification and practical strategies. I have found this resource especially useful in reviewing my scheme of work and individual lesson planning. It gave me really interesting things to consider - A-level is definitely a marathon and not a sprint - so it is useful to take the time to break down question types, approaches to consider, as well as ways to scaffold pupil approaches. After all, they were only Year 11 six weeks ago!
