Topic 6: Inheritance, Variation and Evolution (14 lessons)

Everything you need to teach AQA GCSE Biology Topic 6: Inheritance, Variation and Evolution — 14 ready-to-teach lessons covering the full topic, built by a team of highly experienced teachers and examiners so you can walk into every lesson fully prepared.

Each lesson comes as a complete PowerPoint, with activities embedded directly into the slides — no hunting for separate worksheets. Teaching instructions are built in too: setup notes on the first slide, plus lesson-by-lesson guidance in the notes section, so cover teachers and non-specialists can pick it up with confidence.

Lessons covered: Meiosis; Sexual and asexual reproduction; DNA structure and the genome; Protein synthesis; Genetic inheritance and Mendel; Genetic crosses; Variation and evolution; Theory of evolution; Speciation; Evidence of evolution, fossils and extinction; Selective breeding; Genetic engineering; Cloning; Classification.

Every lesson is designed around active learning, exam technique and neurodivergent-inclusive practice, with built-in questions and review tasks that train students in how AQA actually marks — not just what they need to know.
