Hi all. To support the Spec B AQA Religious Studies GCSE - model answers for unit 1 Religion and citizenship, covering identity, relationships, sport and multicultural society, marked and checked by an AQA examiner. Please note you can use these for revision; live marking or sharing with less able pupils to make more progress. There are more to come. I have used the mark scheme from AQA to support these answers.

AQA SPEC B UNIT 2 is coming to an end this year but much of the content in the NEW GRADE 9-1 GCSE SPEC A is the same especially in the Thematic studies modules. This will support progress for all learning groups. these 50 quick questions can be used in paired or group activities as well as independent learning activities. The aim is to embed knowledge and allow pupils to recall and apply knowledge and understanding. The Quick Question approach was observed in maths lessons so I have tried to adopt it for Religious Studies. Hope it helps all colleagues and pupils!

A one page document that covers the theories of sociology across the 6 topics of studying society, family, education, crime, media and inequality. The document offers summary statements that can allow pupils to develop further arguments and make more links. It worked really well with my Year 11s especially the lower and middle ability pupils who were able to interpret suggest and make statements about the theories in their 5 and 12 mark responses.

Hi colleagues I have put together responses for every 4 mark question since 2011 in AQA Paper 1 Studying Society. Repeat questions and topics have also not been included. I used recalled AQA scripts, the relevant Mark scheme and teacher marking to write them. Hope it helps

Crime, Inequality and Media model responses to 5 mark questions for paper 2. I have answered over 32 questions for 5 marks Using mark schemes, pupil responses and exam report feedback. These questions have come up routinely since 2011 till now. I will continue developing them moving onto 12 mark questions for paper 1 and paper 2. We still have one more year with this spec. hope it helps in the final two weeks. Only 10 questions have been omitted which were similar to questions already answered.

Simple revision sheet for all pupils studying the AQA A 9-1 GCSE Islam unit. Summarises the main parts between articles and pillars in Sunni Islam. The majority of questions in beliefs and practices focus on the 6 articles and 5 pillars. This would be ideal for Grade 3-6 students and it has also been good for grades 7-9 as a form of revision.

A full knowledge organiser based on the AQA A 9-1 GCSE Islam Unit covering key quotes, beliefs, explanations and examples of practice. Organised to support learners across the 9-1 ability range. It worked really well with 5 and 12 Markers. Please do let me know how you get on. This should be especially useful where RE departments do not have enough curriculum time and may need ready to use resources that cover all key beliefs in one space. They can support immediate progress and can be used like Science Knowledge Organisers.

A story board to support the AQA A Islam 9-1 Beliefs and practices. Ideal for lower ability and for use with higher ability pupils who may omit basic beliefs when developing their responses.

A list of beliefs and practices with key bits in bold to support learners who revise best through lists. I have tried to reduce fact so it is in small chunks. Pupils can use the sheet printed on 4 sheets per page and fold for a mini cards revision list. Supports learners of all abilities. As a teaching tool can be used to check misconceptions, affirm previous learning and be used a tick sheet to self reflect on what pupils know.

Key words for Beliefs and practices in AQA A 9-1 Religious studies. Focusses on Christianity and Islam. Can be photocopied or used on the board.

I anticipate these model responses can be used every year with a broad range of pupils. Appreciate feedback.

I have been teaching this for over a year now and have found that pupils can have difficulty accessing the terminology. So I have developed this Key words list using the AQA Glossaries to cover all Topics in Unit 1 Studying society, education and family; crime, media and inequality for Unit 2. Every key word is covered to ensure pupils can maximise their marks across the questions. You can use them for quizzes, setting 12 Mark questions, short tests etc. Thanks for your support.
