The website The Controller mentions gives you a good idea what the Instructor Manual is like. I also recommend it, BUT
1. I believe it deals with the UK PPL(H) prior to JAA, so there may be one or two differences.
2. When it first came out, I remember various discussions between instructors arguing about certain minor bits.
Not trying to put you off, it would be well worth getting, but bear these 2 points in mind.
The guy who produced it also sold a set of overheads covering the pre-flight briefs.

There was also a Hele Instructors' manual that was published by the CAA as a CAP. It was discontinued, it related to pre-JAR FCL but was a good guide and aide-memoire. I believe it was taken from some UK military CFS document or notes.
======================================================
Just dug it out of my memory and library - it was CAP 421. Now disowned by the CAA, but still very relevant if you can get a copy. The rules of physics and aerodynamics have not been altered by transference of responsibility from the CAA to JAA/EASA methinks.
