Shakespeare costs students marks in the exam. This text guide sets out the play the way examiners ask about it. It covers the plot first, then the characters, themes, language and context. The notes suit AQA, Edexcel, OCR and Eduqas. There are harder questions for a student aiming at grade 8 or 9.

Every main character gets a profile in the 80-page printed guide, as the sample pages on Hero, Claudio and Beatrice show. Warm-up activities and longer exercises lead into exam-style questions at the end of each section. Essay advice comes with them, plus online Sudden Fail quizzes and an Online Edition with activities by board.

The cartoon-strip summary brings the whole plot back in minutes before a mock. Your student can revise one theme in an evening and a character the next, then answer the questions that follow. Each page points back to what the essay question will ask.
