This is a full unit of work, designed to use after students have sat the PPE / Mock exam that Cambridge provide free of charge on their website (although I have uploaded it with the lessons for ease). This exemplar exam is produced for the new 2015 / 2016 specification and uses the new format for the core paper. Cambridge have produced it to support schools using their exam this year. These lessons are completely new resources; produced entirely by me and not available anywhere else to purchase.
The idea of the scheme is that you give the exam to the students, let the pupils sit it and then don't mark it but actually go through it with the students and teach them how it would be marked and how they should have approached it - a little bit like a 'walking talking mock style' but after the fact. "This is what you should have done".
By teaching these 5 lessons you help them to understand why they receive the marks that they will and what they could have done to improve. The lessons are designed to boost pupils up to band 1, regardless of where the starting point may have been and should demonstrate ample progress and reflection time for students.
Each lesson is a self contained powerpoint with the resources attached at the end of it, so that they can be printed out easily.
lesson 1 starts with questions 1a to 1c and recaps vocabulary with cooperative learning techniques and a competition; helping to boost pupils understanding in preparation for lesson 2 and 3.
Lesson 2 covers the techniques and ways to tackle 1c to 1f. There are pictures of student answers for students to mark and explain why the students did or did not get full marks.
lesson 3 is dedicated to the tricky 1g and explains how pupils should tackle it, using the mark scheme explicitly and example answers.
Lesson 4 tackles question 2, explaining how students should avoid the pitfalls that they sometimes fall into.
Lesson 5 goes over the simplest way that pupils should have tackled question 3 and asks them to reflect on all that they have learnt in the week then to write to the teacher with how they could improve now and what they still need to learn.
Each lesson allows pupils the opportunity of a 'redo'; with the scaffolding of the mark scheme and their original answer in front of them - hence the demonstration of progress.

This is fantastically put together, everything is explained simply but thoroughly. Thank you very much!
This is an excellent resource. It was great to use with my year 11, after they sat the exam, in a "walking talking mock" style. The tasks on each lesson enabled them to compare their answers with sample answers and the mark schemes so that they could see what they need to do to get the full marks for the core paper. I also used this with your other cambridge scheme on here and the progress is evident - in their books, too! These lessons make it so obvious! Thank you - you have saved our department hours!
