Media Reviews
My students are really engaging with the textbook, easy language but still in a lot of detail and at a high level. great to work with while listening to Christmas songs. -- Miss Hannah Lockey * Abigail Lambert *
A useful textbook for planning the A Level course. Some sections are rather too detailed for some students to access at the start of the A Level course and there is a lot of background detail which, while useful, can make it difficult to see clearly what the most important information is. The Developments section is probably the most clear and the most helpful with a real focus on the exact demands of the specification. -- Mrs Susannah Wells * Mrs Susannah Wells *
