To access these resources, you will need a Gmail email account. Once you have set up your Gmail account, please register for your lessons using our booking form. Please indicate on the booking form when you will be teaching the topic (month/half term) so we can ensure one of our education advisers is available to support you.
We will then provide you with access to the resources and send you links to the films. At the end of term, you will receive an evaluation form asking you to tell us how many students accessed each lesson. After your topic has finished, you can then close down your GMail account at your leisure.
