> We offer many resources for students revising for their GCSEs including: GCSE revision notes and practice questions, a GCSE bookshop, GCSE help and advice and the take a break section.

There are two main ways of managing water supplies:

- High technology approach used mainly in MEDCs where money, skilled people, resources are available.
- Low technology approach used mainly in LEDCs where money, skilled people, resources are not available.
