This allows you as a teacher to ensure that all written work in class books is meaningful, and exam focused whilst the work booklet remains as a scaffold.

Case study: At my own school as Head of Department, every GCSE pupil is given a colored version of these work booklets at the start of each topic. They sit inside a plastic wallet with their exercise book and offer pupils of all abilities the support they need to succeed. They will use these work booklets every lesson to build up knowledge before completing or planning a question relevant to the lesson content. All lessons have hinge questioning directly linked to the content of the booklets and pupils can easily identify information they may need when revising. Pupils have all of their work and knowledge in one place, no excessive printing, sticking or losing sheets! A teacher can also easily identify the learning journey alongside their pupil as they work through this long and content heavy GCSE topic with ease. As a result of using these booklets, our pupils only use their exercise books for meaningful and valuable writing in lessons. For example, rather than a futile number of worksheets, pupils books often only contain exam practice and written summaries of the lessons learnt. This makes it easier as a teacher to live mark and navigate pupils to the next steps to upscale their work as they have all of the information and support, they need in the work booklet right in front of them.
