Antarctic Schools Pack: A-level EdExcel Geography syllabus based resource


The Antarctic Schools Pack is the first educational resource on Antarctica to have been produced especially for students in the post-16 age range. BAS scientists and technical experts wrote the pack with the assistance of an educational consultant. The Commissioner for the British Antarctic Territory, John White, and the BAS Director, Professor Chris Rapley, launched the Pack at a North London comprehensive school in April 1999.
The Pack contains information on climate change, the ozone hole, Antarctic ecosystems, tourism, environmental issues and other topical subjects. The Pack is focused on the A-level EdExcel Geography syllabus with fifteen topics, each with worksheets and appropriate resources. In addition a 56-page Teachers Notes provides model answers to the tasks set in the worksheets.
