Welcome to my shop!
I teach a range of subjects and here you can find access to all the lovely resources that I use in my lessons. I use a range of work booklets, activity sheets, case studies and presentations.
This is a bundle of all the teaching resources you would need for the teaching and learning of Unit 3 Crime Scene to Courtroom (the controlled assessment) of the Level 3 course.
The resources provided are for Level 3 students studying Criminology (Eduqas/WJEC spec).
Each lesson contains a power point and booklet for students to write in. I personally, use the booklets to keep track and ensure that students are doing what they should be. As you can’t mark student work until the end of the controlled assessment period- this really has helped me to track student progress. I get students to hand in their booklets after I have finished teaching each assignment criteria. This ensures that they are doing their independent research outside of lesson.
I have based these resources/lessons on the Gareth Hughes Assignment Brief (all the exam material provided by the exam board is FREE on the Eduqas website). I have made links to this assignment brief throughout as practice so that students then know how to apply each section when they are doing the formal controlled assessment (with a brief that they haven’t yet seen).
The resources provide you with booklets, answer plans, activities and much more to teach the whole of Unit 3 with. If you are teaching this for half the year, this provides you with effectively 6 months of teaching resources and it works out cheaper to buy the bundle rather than paying for each lesson individually.
Feel free to message me with any questions as I know that this is a new course! I am now known as the Criminology Guru at my college so I am happy to help.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions for Unit 3 and Unit 4 if you are unsure about anything.

Within this bundle you will find all the lessons and work booklets for both teacher and student to complete the full unit.
Once the students have completed the booklets, this will give them a framework to help them start writing their assignments independently.
This bundle pack contains all of the Pass, Merit and Distinction criteria…and therefore saves on lots of planning! Enjoy!
These Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students.
Learning Outcome 3: Understanding Measures Used in Social Control
AC3.1: Explain the Role of Agencies in Social Control
The lesson power point covers an introduction to the new learning objective along with activities, tasks and research. The Criminology textbooks focus on facts of the social control agencies (which the students can easily read as homework), therefore I have focused the lesson on HOW social control is achieved by these agencies as this is what is required for the exam (if you look at the sample questions and mark schemes).
Therefore, I have made it explicit to the students where/how each agency achieves control. I have covered: The CPS/The Police/The Judiciary/Prison Services. I have tasked students to cover the Probation Service and Charities & Pressure groups within their booklet on their own so they are not completely reliant on me during the lesson and to help keep up engagement.
I found it useful to cover a little on the Separation of Powers theory first -particularly when it comes to the Judiciary as this really helps students to understand the evaluation points that come later in the unit. I have attached a SOP lesson on here- if you wish to use it in this or another lesson.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions.

Level 3 Criminology Independent Study Pack
I have put together a booklet using power point. It contains a variety of activities and exercises to encourage students to work from home. I have tried to vary activities as much as possible; there are case studies, exam questions, cut and stick exercises and lots more.
I hope this helps.
I am getting my students to email me portions of it once completed.
These Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students.
Learning Outcome 2: Understanding the Role of Punishment in a Criminal Justice System
Assignment Criteria 2.3: Assess How Forms of Punishment Meet the Aims of Punishment
The lesson power point covers the four key types of sentence and how the courts try to meet their aims with those punishments.
I have included a booklet for students to follow along with, exam questions for this assignment criteria and an activity on the James Bulger case.
The Sentecing Council website has some really great videos on how the courts decide their sentences. They are short and sweet but my students found them to be helpful.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions.

Learning Outcome 3: Understanding Measures Used in Social Control
AC3.4 Evaluate the Effectiveness of Agencies in Achieving Social Control
The resources include a lesson power point, follow along student booklet, activities, homework and exam questions. The evaluation part requires higher order thinking skills from students so I have tried to break this down as much as possible so that students feel more confident in tackling longer exam questions.

This is the last section in Unit 4 but I will also be putting some end of unit revision materials on TES.
These resources are for the BTEC National Applied Law course (Pearson 2017 specification).
*The lesson materials cover: Unit 4 Family Law: An Introduction *
These resources contain a lesson power point along with activities and homework to prepare students for the whole unit of learning. The activities are designed to get students talking about the wider aspects of law.
Before, teaching the specific assessment lessons, I wanted my students to have a general introduction lesson which introduced them to family law without the restrictions of assessment criteria. This worked really well as students then took a more thoughtful approach to learning and understanding the subject content when it came to later tasks.
I hope these help.
These resources are aimed at Level 3 A level law students. The exam board that I am working with is OCR but these resources can be adapted to any level 3 exam board (e.g. AQA etc).
I have included lesson power points on all three branches of Torts Connected to Land:
Public Nuisance
Private Nuisance
Rylands V Fletcher
I have tried to make these lessons as varied and fun as possible. I have included quizzes, mind maps, key terms and even pictures that the students can use to cut out and stick to their flash cards in order to help them remember key cases.
Hope they help!
Revision materials for the end of Unit 2:
I found that doing a mixture of tests, revision activities and getting students to have a go at their own revision materials was the best way to revise. It kept it fun, engaging and mixed up!
My students found the Key Theorists Quick Revision Sheet very useful for learning them all so I gave them all a copy and laminated one for the classroom wall. This really came in handy with the lollypop game I played with them all (put the names of the theorists on a lollypop stick and they have to explain who that theorist is and what the theory is about. Make sure you give the lollypop sticks out randomly).
I had a student on results day say that she hated this game at the time but after receiving her A grade- she couldn’t thank me for it enough as it really did WORK! Give it a whirl!
These Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students.
Learning Outcome 3: Understanding Measures Used in Social Control
AC3.2 Describe the Contribution of Agencies to Achieving Social Control
The resources include a lesson power point, follow along student booklet and activities. Within the lesson I have included discussion tasks, picture tasks and tables. The content addresses the following:
By Design (Environment/Prison)-This looks at how local councils design environment areas to help reduce crime
Behavioural Tactics- This looks at things such as ASBOS/police cautions/warnings/fines etc
Institutional Tactics- This looks at CJS institutions such as prison using things such as token economy systems
Gaps in State Provision-This looks at the flaws in social control agencies and why they are not able to achieve complete social control e.g. lack of adequate funding etc
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions.

I will be putting more resources up for this unit.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 4: LO 4: Understand causes of policy change
AC 4.3 Discuss how campaigns affect policy development
I have included a power point lesson which gets students to reflect on the campaigns for change they covered in Unit 1. This helped my students to tackle this section better as they then understood how this fitted in with causes of policy change (e.g. Stephen Lawrence and the abolishment of the double jeopardy rule). I had a really good class discussion about this section and we highlighted how the government is often very reactive to incidents rather than proactive. My students were saddened that tragedies such as this had to happen before the government did anything about it.
I have also included an activity sheet and some typical exam questions for this section.
This is a bundle of all the teaching resources you would need for the teaching and learning of Unit 2 Criminological Theories (the externally examined unit).
The resources provided are for Level 3 students studying Criminology (Eduqas/WJEC spec).
Each lesson contains a power point and a variety of activities to cover each section. The activities vary from case studies, missing words, key terms sheets, court template/legislation tasks and many other work sheets that cover this diverse topic.
Also included are example exam questions (both long and short) to ensure that students differentiate this topic from the controlled assessment unit which is a different style of teaching and learning.
Given the current nature of students learning from home, I have also created a STUDENT HOME LEARNING PACK that my students have found really useful. I have set them deadlines for each section so I can see that they are learning and revising from home.
Feel free to message me with any questions as I know that this is a new course! I am now known as the Criminology Guru at my college so I am happy to help.
I hope you find these resources helpful- particularly if you are new to teaching Criminology. My specialism is Law and Criminology so I also welcome any Law related questions for Unit 3 and Unit 4 if you are unsure about anything.

I will be putting more resources up for this unit.
The Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students. They cover:
Learning Outcome 4: LO 4: Understand causes of policy change
AC4.2 Explain how social changes affect policy development
This section considers how policy has been influenced by social changes and attitudes in society. There are quite a few topics under this section which could come up in the exam (I discussed a few things with my class to start with early in the lesson). I focus on two main areas in this lesson (same sex relationships and women’s rights) so that they can see how I examine the social change and then the policy development that goes with it. As homework, I set my class the task of researching 4 other topic areas of their own along with the up-skirting activity.
Hope this helps.
These Criminology resources are aimed at Level 3 students.
Learning Outcome 2: Understanding the Role of Punishment in a Criminal Justice System
Assignment Criteria 2.2: Discuss the Aims of Punishment
The lesson power point covers the key aims of sentencing set out by the CJA. It considers what these aims mean for the courts and how they can be used. There are activities for students to link these aims to key theorists. I have included activities such as; a work booklet, a case study and a revision sheet amongst many other things to keep students engaged.

Learning Outcome 3: Be Able to Review Criminal Cases
AC3.1-Examine Information for Validity
The resources include a lesson power point and a booklet that students can use to take notes in. I have also included a structure sheet with a table that helps students to see how they can set out in section in a logical order.
There are case studies for each source and some articles for wider reading that I have also popped onto the power point (and provided the links to). The BBC article is free to access on-line but I have also put this into a Word Document for ease (gives the students something to read and highlight/take home).
Anyone looking for the Unit 3 assignment brief as a practice run through with students then please find attached a copy here. This was the original one from the exam board which I know a lot of people have struggled to find.
Hope this helps,
