Nothing goes on sale until it has been written, checked against the specification and QA’d. Cards marked Coming soon are real packs in production: you can see what’s in them, but you can’t buy them yet. If your board says Planned, there’s nothing to buy yet, and we’d rather tell you that than sell you something adapted from a different syllabus.

What’s in a resource pack

Each pack is a complete unit, not a single lesson. A typical one contains:

• A teaching deck built as a reference students return to across two to four weeks, not a one-lesson slideshow.
• Lesson plans in full starter / main / plenary format, with the questions written in.
• A student workbook that runs the whole unit — brief, process log, commentary template, peer check and confidence rating.
• A teacher’s guide of two to three pages, with pacing, differentiation and assessment cues — plus a separate additional information file for the software detail and the think-aloud scripts.
• A questioning bank — recall starters, checkpoints and misconception re-checks, for the weeks when coursework time gets broken up.

Everything arrives as editable .docx and .pptx files, not locked PDFs, with print-ready PDFs alongside. Change the examples, cut the slides you don’t need, rewrite the tasks in your own voice.

How resources are labelled

• Evergreen — safe to reuse every year without checking.
• Annually verify — built around something the board rotates, such as a set work or prescribed repertoire. Flagged so you know to check before reusing it.

Every pack also names the software it assumes. Where that software is BandLab, it is the free tier, in a browser, with no installation and nothing for your network manager to approve.

Where to buy

First releases go on Tes, with Teachers Pay Teachers to follow. Buying directly from this site is coming, and direct is where the department licence (five named teachers) and the whole-school licence live, since the marketplaces don’t support them.

One standard licence covers one teacher and every class that teacher teaches, with no expiry. The full terms are here.
