KS3 AQA Curriculum Plan 2017-2018
Want to know what to teach, and when, for your year 7’s and 8’s next academic year?
Need to plan out all your topics, assessments and data entry deadlines.
Then this should work for you.
This document is for a 2 year KS3 course following the AQA specification for 2017-18.
It contains an editable week by week calendar, editable to the day to show term times and days of the week. Colour coded to show bank holidays, school development days and closed days for terms that end or start mid-week. Completely changeable to fit your school dates.
All 10 chapters have been analysed to weigh their allocated teaching time to match their depth and content. This analysis is on the second tab and analyses content and compares to annual teaching time to allocate a relative number of weeks for each topic.
This is then mapped through the year following a physics, chemistry and then biology rotation. At the end of each rotation a week has been placed for revision and full assessment.
A full list of all small review dates and data entry dates all mapped in line with this timeline.
This is then mapped to 8 classes per year with a map for a single teacher or split group to fit your timetable.

AQA B1, C1 and P1 Exam Questions for Revision and Assesment by Spec Code
Want to find a question on a specific topic for 2017 revision?
Want to make an exam paper on a range of topics?
Want to easily generate revision booklets?
Don’t want to waste your time searching for those questions?
Then this tool will help.
This document consists of a full spec list for B1, C1 and P1 and a list of exam questions by spec code for all of Core. This includes all F and H paper over the years 2016-2014.
It is a filterable and editable spreadsheet, listing in spec order, all the exam questions over the last three years.
Simply filter by the exact required spec code. This can also be done to a range of detail as the spec codes have been split across four columns to be able to filter by a whole topic in a simpler way.
It will then tell you the tier, year and exact question in a list.
This list could then aid you to quickly build a resource or even give straight to pupils to generate very targeted homework/revision task based on your own gap analysis.

Biology Foundation Paper 1 Revision and Advance Information Exam Support
Now that the “Advance Information” has been released by AQA I have put together an AQA exam question revision and assessment pack following the “major focus” list. This is themed so that it can be uploaded, completed and reviewed independently by the pupils as the mark scheme and examiners report are included. Or it can broken down to be completed in class over a few lessons. The pack is approximately 2.5-3 hrs worth of questions using the AQA times.
The booklet starts with a review front sheet which lists all the specification points being reviewed. There is then a spec point break down and multiple questions per focus. Starting questions followed by a more challenging ones. It then ends with required practical themed questions.
Each question has a place to record scores and review through a WWW and EBI list. There is then space for self review/feedback.
B1: AQA Core Biology Revision and 2017 Exam Support
All spec codes must be examined through a three year period with AQA exams. This is a spec code frequency analysis of 2015-16 exams for both foundation and higher exam papers leading to very specific lesson focus and pupil revision. It highlights spec codes that HAVE NOT appeared in the last two years leading to a very high probability of them appearing in summer 2017.
This tool has analysed 2016 and 2015 exam papers and completed a frequency count of each lettered spec code. This summarises into a combined table to prepare for the 2017 exams.
It highlights lettered spec codes that have not been assessed in the last two years by showing as green. Being the last year of AQA Core exams before the 1-9 exams there is a very high probability of possible topics that will appear in the summer exams. It colours through a spectrum of red to green, of other specs which have been assessed, but infrequently. It shows this by a simple count and relative frequency to the number of spec codes. The relative analysis tool shows how common it has appeared in the last two years relative to the number of spec points. A low spec count could still have a high relative count showing a lower probability. There is also a combined summary for F and H papers if you teach mixed groups.
Each analyse is shown graphically leading to easy displays for pupils to review key areas to focus.
On following tabs there is a full spec checklist filterable by their appearance in either F, H or both so pupils can view this information in a checklist explaining each spec point. This has then lead to a checklist revision list for both F and H papers.
A F and H revision pack is then included with past exam question specifically themed on these areas to help support and lead revision up to the summer exams. Mark schemes and examiners reports are included for these questions.
The aim of the support pack is to help prepare for the summer exams of 2017. This is a very unique situation where we can have a good chance of using this analyse to target revision and focus the pupils.
Careers in Science
Documents to produce a flow chart display of careers from KS2 through to degree and future careers. All headings and pictures included and organised for you to generate display.
ISA Core or Additional Tracker
An AQA template designed to record and analyse ISA results. Scores are recorded per question for gap analysis. Overall grades compared to targets. Progress calculated per pupil and scores converted to UMS following AQA grade boundaries. Easily modified to match any ISA completed.
B2: AQA Additional Biology Revision and 2017 Exam Support.
All spec codes must be examined through a three year period with AQA exams. This is a spec code frequency analysis of 2015-16 exams for both foundation and higher exam papers leading to very specific lesson focus and pupil revision.

AQA Combined Science Trilogy Biology Paper 2 Revision and 2019 Exam Support
All spec codes must be examined through a three-year period with AQA exams. This is a spec code frequency analysis of the 2018 exams for both foundation and higher exam papers leading to very specific lesson focus and pupil revision. It highlights spec codes that HAVE NOT appeared in last year’s exams or very infrequently, leading to a very high probability of most of them appearing in summer 2019. (Some spec point could be assessed in 2020 and still meet the three-year rule.)
This tool has analysed 2018 foundation and higher exam papers and completed a frequency count of each spec code. This summarises into a combined table to prepare for the 2019 exams.
It highlights spec codes that have not been assessed by showing as green. It colours through a spectrum of red to green, of other specs which have been assessed, but infrequently. It shows this by a simple count and relative frequency to the number of spec codes. The relative analysis tool shows how common it has appeared relative to the number of spec points. A low spec count could still have a high relative count showing a lower probability. There is also a combined summary for F and H papers if you teach mixed groups.

On the following tabs there is a full spec checklist filterable by their appearance in either F, H or both so pupils can view this information in a checklist explaining each spec point. This has then lead to a checklist revision list for both F and H papers.
Exam questions have been made into a F and H assessment/revision document from AQA past papers and has been made specifically themed on these areas to help support and lead revision up to the summer exams. All markschemes and examiner reports are included.
Hopefully this will lead to a more productive approach, in terms of revision topics and time management, for both pupils and teachers.
