Teaching Resources
Everything you need to plan lessons, understand assessment requirements and support students effectively.
This resource area brings together essential teaching and assessment materials for each unit. Use these resources to prepare lessons, align teaching with the Assignment Brief and help students develop the knowledge and academic writing skills required for assessment.
1 / Textbook
Use the textbook as a core reference when planning and delivering the unit. It provides key subject knowledge, theories, terminology, business examples and concepts linked to the learning aims.
2 / Assignment Brief
The Assignment Brief should be at the centre of your unit planning. It defines what students are expected to produce and the evidence required to meet the assessment criteria.
Suggested
Teaching Workflow
Our teaching resources are designed to help teachers make a clear connection between:
Assignment Brief → Required Knowledge → Lesson Delivery → Writing Skills → Assessment Evidence
The aim is not simply to help students complete an assignment, but to ensure that they understand the subject knowledge, develop appropriate academic skills and are properly prepared to produce their own assessment evidence.
