This is where we provide resources from schools in the UK. Mainly for Key Stage 3 and GCSE of England.

Key Stage 1 is a phase of primary education for pupils aged 5 to 7 in England, or 6 to 8 in Northern Ireland.Key Stage 2 is a phase of primary education for pupils aged 7 to 11 in England and Wales, or 8 to 11 in Northern Ireland.
Key Stage 3 is the first three years of secondary school education in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, for pupils aged 11 to 14.
GCSE is the qualification taken by 15 and 16 year olds to mark their graduation from the Key Stage 4 phase of secondary education in England, Northern Ireland and Wales.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/education/clips...Shopping does not have to be a chore, as this demonstration by the internationally renowned architect David Adjaye reveals. Selfridges and Harvey Nichols have improved business by making shopping a fun adventure. At the heart of this concept is an insistence on architectural excellence. We see how each floor of the Selfridges store in Manchester's Exchange Square has been designed by a different architect, giving each floor its own unique look and feel. We also hear how top store Harvey Nichols has created a top class restaurant at the top of its London store to help attract people into the store.
This provides an illustration of how creativity and design is an essential factor in ensuring a modern day shopping experience. Following the clip, students could be asked to consider how the broad human and physical factors are taken into consideration in the design process. This might be achieved through getting them to become involved in the creation of a realistic design for a small shop. Consider the processes involved in using different materials and how they influence the design process. Research the impact of a wide range of factors that influence the development and design of the built environment in the context of retailing.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/education/guide...A stimulus is something which interests an artist or designer and gives them new ideas. A stimulus can be as simple as a word or as complex as a novel, person, place or an entire culture. The plural is stimuli.
You may decide on your own stimulus, or have to respond to one that is provided.
In design work, carrying out market research might suggest possible starting points. You may also work from a source of inspiration or from a design problem as a stimulus to help you generate ideas.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/education/guide...The human respiratory system is adapted to allow air to pass in and out of the body, and for efficient gas exchange to happen. Exercise and smoking both affect the lungs and circulatory system.

The proper functioning of the circulatory system is essential for health. Blood transports substances around the body to every cell and removes toxic waste. It also defends against disease.https://www.bbc.co.uk/education/guide...
Computers exist in many digital devices that we use on a day-to-day basis. Digital devices may be input, output or storage devices. On a basic level, they all operate through the use of logic gates.https://www.bbc.co.uk/education/guide...
A circuit board can be found inside most digital devices. It is a flat, thin board that has tiny electrical components built onto it. These components make up an electric circuit and include:
resistors
capacitors
diodes
transistors
integrated circuits
Many electronic circuits have to make decisions. They look at one or more inputs and use these to determine the outputs from the circuit. The process of doing this uses electronic logic, which is based on digital switches called gates. Each input and output of the logic gates must be one of two states:
