Serves both as a GCSE Geography case study and decision making practice. Just a re-jigged resource that I created for the death-throes of the 2012 OCR-B syllabus, but still relevant for the new 9-1 GCSEs. Why FREE? While the resource is my own creation, it contains elements from other sources (which are cited/referenced where possible) and this resource is considered ‘legacy’ and will not be updated. But I work very hard on making resources that are effective and engaging, so please leave me some kind feedback and visiting my ‘Geogramblings’ website where more up-to-date stuff is available!

One-page revision sheets. One side information and the other side tasks to practice recall. A range of topics. I make these up as and when they are needed by our students. Hopefully useful! Why FREE?

This scheme of work is designed to start preparing Year 9 students for GCSE by mirroring part of the ‘Urban Issues and Challenges’ section of the AQA Geography GCSE (8035) which considers a case study of a HIC city and LIC city. Since this unit focuses on two cities at the same time rather than one, the focus is often of comparison and connections rather than depth. This scheme of work is assessed by a mock GCSE tier-less examination at the end of the unit. The assessment is linked to the new GCSE 9-1 grades as well as KS3 progress ladders. As a whole unit, this scheme of work is expected to take around 14-15 hours. Not all resources could be provided. However, this scheme has been uploaded ‘as-is’ for you to use, adapt and develop as you wish, but please credit me as the original author. I would be very grateful if you could review my work, in order to help others judge whether the resource(s) are useful, and how they could be improve them. Thanks!

I would like to share with you all our department’s scheme of work on glaciers. It was co-written with student leaders and hopefully you will find some or all of it useful! This scheme also refers to relevant video clips from a field trip to the USA (http://youtu.be/qC5ZvFeFThU and http://youtu.be/kfrUB8mdYAI) Feel free to download all the resources or [glacier] cherry-pick. ;) I would be very grateful if you could review my work, in order to help others judge whether the resource(s) are useful, and I how I could improve them.
