"Case studies seem detailed, current and up-to-date, with good locational variety. I think it will help all tiers and abilities."
Alix Page-Walters, Kingsmead School, on the second edition
"GCSE Geography Edexcel B gives a comprehensive, visual, relevant coverage of the syllabus. The content follows a logical, easy-to-use structure. The case studies included are up-to-date, interesting and relevant. The book also includes excellent sections about exam practice and success and an extremely useful section for the controlled assessment."
Helen Phillips, The Chadwell Heath Foundation School, on the first edition
"GCSE Geography Edexcel B complements the course outline really well. It's bright and eye-catching with a variety of styles which satisfies the most curious of minds. We've used the geog.123 series now for a number of years and pupils have enjoyed the balance of visual and written stimulus materials along with good quality support resources. I have every confidence Oxford publishing have come up with another winning series!"
Simon Abel, King's High School, on the first edition
"The Student Book is a bold colour which grabs attention and looks interesting. It is well set out and in my opinion has the balance between text and diagrams right. The text is also broken down into nice 'chunks' of information so it is accessible for all. As we will be studying GCSEs with Year 9, it is important that a diverse cohort can cope and access the text. One of my Year 9s said, 'the diagrams and pictures make things easier to understand and the topics sound quite interesting!' "
Leanne Williamson, Geography teacher, Temple Moor High School, on the first edition
"Covers everything students need to know in language they can access easily, making the transition from KS3 to KS4 easier. The book includes key word definitions, bright, easy-to-read diagrams for visual learners, and good questions, which are accessible yet allow extension for higher attainers. In short, this book provides an excellent grounding for GCSE geography"
Frances Currie, Queens Park Community School, on the first edition
"A really well presented book that is invaluable for those teaching the Edexcel B course. It is very readable and appealing to students for whom long pieces of text are challenging."
