  Using the Oxford Concise School Dictionary on the top part of the page and the corresponding Oxford Concise School Thesaurus entries on the bottom, this volume provides a one-stop shop for upper primary/lower secondary school users. The headwords are in bold and the design is clear and accessible. The dictionary provides comprehensive coverage appropriate for the Y7 user, along with word origins, pronunciation guides, idiomatic phrases and idioms, labels and up-to-date example sentences. The thesaurus is completely new in 2005 and provides over 100,000 up-to-date synonyms for the dictionary entries, with those with meaning closest to that of the headword placed first to enable users to select the most accurate alternative.
