Introductory pre-reading exercises build a foundation for learning while thought-provoking activities for every chapter dig deeper. Plus, whole-text activities consolidate knowledge on characterisation, relationships, setting, themes, ideas and messages, language, form, structure and context. All activities are matched to the GCSE Assessment Objectives, and the structure makes the pack accessible for your whole class.

OCR English Literature GCSE Audio Study Guides

OCR has worked in close collaboration with ERA to identify and provide broadcast resources to support your teaching of the OCR Lit in Colour texts. These clips and full programmes offer a rich and diverse source of material to support your teaching and to enhance learning.

To access the Lit in Colour mapped resource area, you will first need to register for your Licence. State schools in England are licensed under a central agreement with the DfE, making your access to the service FREE of charge. This Licence enables educational establishments to make recordings or copies of TV and radio programmes for educational use legally. The Licence covers the TV and radio output of ERA's broadcast members. This means that staff and students at ERA-licensed institutions can record or make copies of programmes for educational use without seeking individual permissions.
