This is an entire unit that prepares Year 9 for the new GCSE examinations in English Language. Students are asked to look at a range of non-fiction texts from a variety of sources, and are asked to consider their own opinions on a range of ideas from feminism to battery farming. There is an opportunity for a debate mid-term which is assessed according to the GCSE pass/merit/distinction framework, and multiple opportunities for short-question exam-style assessments along the way.
This unit was initially designed to help students develop their critical analysis skills and some of the subjects are included in order to encourage debate. Staff must be sensitive when discussing ideas with students and allow students to develop their own opinions on the topics.
This is a unit based on current events, so can also be used for PSHE.
