• Worried about your use of homework?
• Finding cover lessons a problem?
• Keen to support inexperienced and non-specialist staff?
• Wishing to use ICT more effectively?

Raising achievement, reducing workload

This convenient publication offers a substantial bank of digital material that can be presented onscreen and printed out for use in class, at home or at an after-school study club.

KS3 RE Network Resources can form an important time-saving resource for the whole department as:

• the basis for a carefully structured homework programme (the lack of which is frequently criticsed by Ofsted)
• a convenient, referenced source of cover lesson activities that can readily be fitted in to an existing scheme of work
• a range of supplementary materials for classwork
• ideal support for non-specialists.

Over 400 pages of material

All the software you need is provided on the disc. The resources can be viewed onscreen using Adobe Reader (provided on the disc). This allows highlighting and annotating, use of an online dictionary, and a text-to-speech facility. Text and graphics can also be copied and pasted, and the material can be printed on demand. There is separate teacher and student material where appropriate.

Ideal for meeting Ofsted requirements

KS3 RE Network Resources come with a full site licence, and so are ideal for use over an intranet – perfect for demonstrating how your department uses ICT in the delivery of RE and how it sets regular, appropriate and well-planned homework.
