Welcome to Precooked Sociology

The students just love the videos!

Wolmer’s Trust School for Boys, Kingston , Jamaica.

Teach smarter. Save time. Stay current.

With a membership to Precooked Sociology, you’ll get 80+ spec-ready AQA GCSE & A-Level videos, weekly Sociology in the News worksheets, and new monthly lesson resources — all designed to save hours of planning and bring lessons to life. Each video includes a Cornell Notes PDF and video note-taking worksheet to help students capture key ideas, practise retrieval, and build confidence for exams. We help teachers cut the prep time, stay up to date, and deliver engaging, exam-focused lessons without starting from scratch every week.

In-Depth Lecture-Style or Quick Intro-Friendly videos

We currently have 80+ videos covering all AQA Sociology units — a mix of Quick Intro Videos for easy topic entry points and in-depth lecture-style lessons for deeper understanding. New videos are added every month, and members are notified as soon as fresh content is available in the library.

A Quick Intro Video: Durkheim

Intro videos are short, accessible 3–4 minute explainers designed to give students a quick “I get it!” moment before a topic, concept, or theme is formally taught.

They simplify complex ideas — such as Durkheim’s view of society or Anomie — and help build understanding in a clear, engaging way.

Each video comes with a Cornell Notes sheet and an online multiple-choice quiz that’s auto-marked, so students can instantly practise and check what they’ve learned.

Precooked Sociology provides an informative , regularly updated series of A-Level Sociology videos on Families and Households, Beliefs in Society, Crime and Deviance and Theory and Methods. Students may use these videos to extend and consolidate their learning and for revision purposes and they may be particularly helpful if students are following a “flipped learning” course.

Lecture-Style Video

Each 6–8 minute video explores one key topic — for example, Childhood in Families and Households or Class Differences in Education (MiC).

Every video includes a Cornell Notes and a Student Comprehension Worksheet (PDF and online versions), so students can record, reflect, and apply their learning effectively.

Sociology in the News Worksheets

Every Thursday morning, a brand-new Sociology in the News worksheet lands in your inbox — ready to use in lessons or share directly with your students.

Each edition includes fresh stories linked to:

  • Education (with Methods in Context)
  • Crime and Deviance
  • Sociological Theory & Methods
  • One rotating AQA optional topic

You’ll also get regular features like Did You Know?What Do You Remember?Why Not Take It Further?, and The Sociology Joke of the Week — all designed to spark curiosity, deepen understanding, and make Sociology fun and relevant every week.
