this is a set of 80 cards with various crimes and the maximum penalty. This is a great game to play when teaching about UK crimes and penalties - a good resource for covering Rule of Law in British Values.
Play it like The Price is Right - show one card, read the crime on the next card and have the group guess whether the penalty would be higher or lower.
Alternatively, you can use them for discussion tools and other teaching relating to fines, prison sentences and penalties linked to driving offenses, theft, fraud, criminal damage and drink and drugs.
These are tools I use in my job that are essential for tracking work to be completed, to show learner progress and for tracking attendance and retention. For use by Progress tutors and teachers who want an easier way to maintain and manage their own records.
This is a single sided A4 summary of what British Values, Prevent and Safeguarding are. It was written to remind learners throughout the year, so that they would be able to answer confidently if Ofsted ask them what it is.
There is space to add your Safeguarding Team contact number and I have left it editable so that you can make changes to suit your institution.
I designed this to record week by week attendance for individual learners and the overall classes, enabling me to flag any issues with learners, and to compare to previous years. The spreadsheet is colour coded to show increases and decreases in attendance for each learner. I have included a 2 page instruction on how to use the spreadsheet and the chart, and how to personalise it for your courses/groups. There is also instructions on how to connect the learner to their page on EBS/ProMonitor or whatever software you use which contains their contact details/profile etc.
I use this spreadsheet as my ‘desktop’, using it to navigate to different systems and to compile reports for area review meetings etc.
This is my attendance lesson with activities. I have included a brief lesson plan, the Power Point, and activity resources. The learners look at how their attendance would look to employers and highlights the importance of high attendance.
This is an activity which encourages learners to design their own world, using information they have learned regarding population, landscape, culture etc. There are 8 pages, plus 3 extra blank pages for you to add your own sections, or to use as continuation sheets.
These are a different 9 cards which describe various scenarios indicating safeguarding problems. Learners can use these to discuss risks, problems arising, things that might help. These get discussions flowing about the problems and to consider how people they interact with daily might be facing these problems. A good introduction to advise them what to do in these situations.
This is an activity designed to create debate and discussion amongst learners around the subject of equality and diversity, employment and discrimination.
The cards can be used to identify the 9 protected characteristics, and to identify things that might affect them getting a job.
This is a great activity to do with learners around the subject of bullying and banter.
Learners must work together to decide how serious each word is, which generates conversation about the definition of each one, how serious they believe it is, if they have witnessed this or been subjected to it, and if they have found themselves doing it and not realised that its bullying.
You can cut out and laminate the arrows for stability and longevity. The scale can be cut and laminated and stuck together later in a strip.
An activity for learners to discuss different signs and risks of radicalisation. They can discuss which ones they think are signs of it, and which are not. All the cards can either be a sign of radicalisation or not. They could be set a task to roleplay a scenario with some of the cards, or brainstorm in groups, other reasons for this change of behaviour. The end goal should be that the learners have an idea of what Prevent is for and to recognise signs of radicalisation. They should know the procedure within your establishment for reporting concerns.
This is a bundle of 6 crosswords with answer sheets on the following subjects:
Soft skills
Rights and Responsibilities
Work Ethic
Interviews
Growth Mind-set

A set of 16 cards with various myths and true statements about domestic abuse. Students can use these for discussion and debate and to decide which are true and which are false, and why.
A nice little worksheet for learners to think about what makes them who they are. This is where they can acknowledge what they are good at, what type of person they are, what they value and what interests they have. This can be used to think about personal statements, CVs, writing applications or used for self esteem or self respect lessons.
A short questionnaire for learners to find out what sort of mindset they have. I use this at the beginning and end of a session on Growth Mindset to see if their attitudes have changed.
