Women in Nazi Germany

Edexcel GCSE lesson for Key Topic 4: Nazi policies towards Women. This lesson includes lots of information about Nazi policies towards women including enough detail to easily reach grade 9 level- can be amended for lower ability learners e.g. just by telling them to only look for 4-5 policies on the sheet to use in their answers. Also includes a whole section 3a-3d exam questions on women to practice skills and a part modelled “how useful” are these sources question for students to emulate for the next source and some sentence starters to help them to deal with interpretations e.g. “Interpretation 1 argues” In my experience students really struggle with these questions and don’t always know how to handle them and need plenty of modelling.

History Ofsted Deep Dive Guide

(0)
Useful for Senior Leadership Links and Heads of Department/ Faculty/ Key Stage. My department recently had a very positive experience in an Ofsted Deep Dive. I have attached some useful materials to help other Heads of Department to support the process and to support their teams in what could be (but doesn’t need to be) a stressful experience. Firstly it is important to know- this is not a quick fix- you cannot pull the wool over their eyes if your department has a lot of work to do. However it is not a problem if you have areas of development as long as you and your team know what they are and you have a plan to address them. Included in the resources: -Powerpoint to present to team on what inspectors are looking for including Aide memoire used by Inspectors and questions we were asked during inspection as well as answers we used. -Curriculum map including rationale behind it -Assessment Map/ Overview -Examples of good practice vocabulary sheets
