Content based on the requirements of KS3 and GCSE. Animations useful for A Level also.

Our new Plastics Module is a complete package that includes:

  • plastics technology notes
  • animations of plastics processes
  • a range of exercises that include design and make assignments (DMAs), focused practical tasks (FPTs) and technology questions.

To make teaching easier, the technology theory notes and exercises are in digital format, making them suitable for computers and whiteboards; and in PDF format, that make the A4 theory notes and worksheets easy to print and duplicate .

Our animations make plastics technology easy to learn, that means more student learning and higher achievement.
