The tasks provide worthwhile learning activities which guide students to create a plan for structuring their response before they answer the example questions. it also uses specimen questions and answers to support learning.

This lesson should be taught to KS4 GCSE PE students to enable them to understand the ‘process’ of answering questions and the importance of this paired with the knowledge of content to achieve high grades.
