‘Relative importance’ questions

Plan for the new academic year 2026 for OCR:
Massively improve the ‘full text-book’ style notes. Make them clearly distinct in identity and function from the ‘summary notes’.
Text book notes: introduce a topic to students, teach it methodically. Include lots of general interest content and quotes.
Summary notes: as close as possible to the sort of thing students can actually write into exams. To learn once more familiar with a topic.

I’m going to extend the paywall for Christianity from just the summary notes, to the full text-book notes too. The improvement is so vast and has taken me so much time, I hope people understand the decision. Currently done 4/12 Christianity topics (knowledge of God, moral principles, pluralism and theology & person of Jesus). Expect to be done with that by the end of October.

I’m then going to take the same quality and standard I’ve achieved there, and do all the ethics notes, which will remain non-paywalled.

And then, hopefully, I will have some time to do something for Buddhism.
