Exam Board: SQA Level: Higher Subject: Reading First Teaching: September 2014 First Exam: June 2015 This play, a specified text for Revised Higher English, is the story of three women in war-torn Belfast. Although their men have been killed or imprisoned for their political activities, everyday life must go on. However, the arrival of a disturbing young girl and the revelations which follow threaten to disrupt their friendship. The main themes are largely domestic - relationships between women and within families, dreams and homemaking. The language is colloquial with Irish idioms, and many contemporary references, and there is a poignant ending. The play is aimed at students of English, particularly those studying Higher Grade English. In 1991 Rona Munro won the Susan Smith Blackburn Award and "The Evening Standard" Most Promising Playwright Award for "Bold Girls".

This text has been written to complement "Higher Grade Human Biology" by the same writing team. The book matches the contents and requirements of the syllabus very closely, with examination-style multiple choice questions and matching exercises which are useful as "checking you knowledge tests" and provide a useful glossary once complete. Two specimen papers offer full scale test practice.

This book is firmly based on classroom experience of what works - and what doesn't. Peter Westwood has distilled years of teaching and examining experience (as Senior Examiner for Higher Mathematics) to produce a collection of worked examples for all areas of the syllabus - and a wealth of exercises to let students practise at all levels of difficulty. It can be used as a classroom text, or homework/supported study source of extra exercises, or as a self-access study guide for pupils sitting Higher for the first or second time, or over a two-year course. Whichever way it is used, Higher Maths through Practice & Example will aid chances of success at the highest level.

Close Reading 11-14 provides a wide selection of of extracts from novels old and (especially) new, with accompanying interpretation/ comprehension-type questions. In addition, the 'Taking A Closer Look' section in each chapter focuses on a specific language feature from the passage and provides further explanations and practice exercises on that aspect of language. The book has specific links with Knowledge About Language (by the same authors) but can also be used independently of that title, either as a stand-alone classroom textbook or a resource for individual pupils needing interpretation practice.

"Introductory Scots Law: Theory and Practice" offers a straightforward introduction to the most important areas of Scottish Law. Although it will be an essential handbook for students undertaking advanced law classes as part of HNC or HND qualifications, it is also suitable for those undertaking introductory law classes in other fields (such as professional studies) where there is a 'law component'. Finally, for the general reader, it provides a uniquely accessible guide to the Scottish legal system.
