Teacher Testing Report

The illustrations provided a stimulus for writing. This would fill a gap in terms of non literary material for pupils of average/below average pupils in English, and would provide material for PSE in the lower school in terms of problem solving decision making exercises. Also links with trips/outings/social activities.
