This was initially designed for a competence based curriculum and for year 9s. The scheme of work uses a lot of the RSC active approaches to exploring the use of villains in a variety of plays. The final assessment was to create the prequel or sequel to one of the plays with a focus on the villain. This of course can be adapted to focus on an analytical aspect. There are links to youtube and also you will need to use the RSC teacher packs for some resources as this is what I mainly use when preparing and planning. The lessons were for 2 hours and therefore you may need to cut and change where a lesson starts and ends to suit your school.

A huge booklet full of different activities and tasks for students to complete independently. The perfect workbook for any student studying Othello at KS5. This was originally created for IBDP students but would be good for any literature course.

I’ve designed this for the whole school, specifically to celebrate Shakespeare’s birthday. There are some video links for students to watch but there should be a link to each subject (apart from ICT - apologies) The idea is that students are made aware of the idea that Shakespeare is applicable to every subject and not just English. There are also form time activities for students to complete with tutors.
