Welcome to London Revision, we specialise in producing high quality resources for teachers. All of our publications are sold copyright free for educational purposes only within the purchasing academic institution. London Revision was set up in 1998 to publish materials produced by experienced examiners. Since then it has expanded to produce GCSE Revision Notes for all GCSE History specifications. We have now produced AS and A2 Revision Notes for many AQA, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC Units and Options. We have also developed a range of materials for Citizenship. There is one major change to pour website; the SHP page has been removed and the materials are now listed on the pages for AQA, Edexcel and OCR. The cyhange has taken place because we now have a range of SHP materials designed for each individual specification. On the AQA and OCR pages, SHP (Spec A) is listed first; on the Edexcel pages, SHP (Spec B) is listed second. The former SHP page now lists our materials for WJEC. We have produced these materials as a result of the growing number of English switching to WJEC.

We supply the following materials: E-Books are written to cover the complete content of the specification and are available in electronic form. They can be posted on VLE and used by students at home. They contain text covering the content, sources, exercises and hyperlinks to other sites offering banks of visuals, further more detailed text, biographies and other resources. Student Workbooks are aimed at the D-C borderline and include basic content with exercises. Revision Notes are arranged around key questions and follow the specification exactly. They are in bulletpoint form. Revision Packs are folders of activities which are intended to be used electonically, but which can equally be used in class. Each folder contains exercises covering the full content of the unit AND a sample examintation paper with details explanation for students on answering each of the questions. Usually, there are explanation aimed at both a Grade C and a Grade A*. Tests are objective with four possible answers; some are graded in difficulty. They are intended to enable students to master content. AS/A Level materials are Revision Notes, E-Books (which in this case are largely text) and Tests. AS/A level tests are more demanding with five options and five answers. Students must work out which of the five options are correct.
