Wasted Lives

Narrated by Alan Davies, Wasted Lives puts the moral and scientific arguments against animal experiments in an interesting and thought-provoking way. It covers National Curriculum Targets in Citizenship, English and Science, and is ideal for RE, Media Studies and Sixth Form General Studies. Free Teachers' Notes booklet included.

The accompanying Students Activities Pack includes balanced activities, photocopiable worksheets and lesson plans.

There are two different versions available - one for KS4 and one for Sixth Form. (Please indicate which one you are ordering.)

Their Future in Your Hands

An excellent introduction to animal rights. Ideal resource for stimulating discussion and debate. Rather than just a simple catalogue of the inhumanity of vivisection and factory farms, it is a film of hope, showing how we can all help to create a less violent world for humans, animals and the environment. Has been used extensively in hundreds of schools.

There are two different versions available - one for years 7 and 8 and one for year 9 to Sixth Form. (Please indicate which one you are ordering.)
