This workshop is a mix of short 10-minute presentations, activities, discussions and an opportunity for questions.
We look at the issues for lower ability learners on the current GCSE NEA1 and how they can be addressed. For example: getting organised for practical work, applying food science theory, writing up research and evaluation.
We will break down the exam marking criteria and highlight how marks are awarded for the higher bands. We will explore ideas for supporting researching, investigation, planning, analysis and evaluation skills.
What are the key differences between the bottom grade band and the next one up?
How can you help your students gain the skills they need to move to the next grade boundary and how can they practice and build confidence before NEA1 starts?
A chance to hear about a new resource to support your teaching.
An overview and observations on where lower abilities may struggle or misunderstand this year’s NEA1 tasks.
