- Boost confidence and competence in literacy and language: Active learning tasks are clearly marked as 'building', 'strengthening' and 'extending' so students can see how their skills are improving
- Meet the needs of each pupil in your class: The content and activities are designed to ensure accessibility for those with low prior attainment, while plenty of stretch and challenge is provided for higher ability pupils
- Effectively check and assess progress: Formative assessments at the end of each chapter help you monitor progression against the Experiences & Outcomes and Benchmarks (with additional assessments in the separate Planning & Assessment Pack)
- Lay firm foundations for National qualifications: Covering all skills across Talk and Listening, Writing, Critical Reading, and Reading for Understanding, Analysis and Evaluation will set pupils up for success at National 5 and beyond
