'TOPIC ON A PAGE’ OCR GCSE 9-1,SHP History B THE PEOPLE’s HEALTH Key Topic 4 MODERN BRITAIN 1900 -
This resource provides students with a 'TOPIC ON A PAGE’ summary for the OCR GCSE 9-1, History B SHP ‘Thematic Study’ unit THE PEOPLE’s HEALTH Key Topic 4 MODERN BRITAIN 1900 onwards
They fully cover the syllabus content for each topic and can be used by students and teachers to:
a) consolidate knowledge and understanding to encourage student mastery (embedding academic language and concepts) after students have completed a topic in class or as a homework task, helping them identify areas of strengths and weaknesses
b) as a quick starter activity to review prior learning or weeks/months later as a spaced retrieval practice task. I regularly take sections from the placemats and use them to support spiralled learning.
c) to encourage relevant exam responses - specifically targeting the themes of explaining living conditions (with a focus on housing, food, water and waste management), people’s response to Epidemics, public health features/impact of local and national government on public health. Additionally, students are encouraged to reflect on the extent of continuity and change between periods which will help with planning for the extended essay Q.
d) the question squares can be completed and then colour coded to show the influence of the five factors and be cut up into cards to form KAGAN Quiz/Quiz Trade Question and Answer Cards
e) as a useful revision aid before the final exam. (Many of my Year 11 students rely on these sheets in the final weeks and days of revision and have commented that they have helped make factual recall of the huge volume of the syllabus content more achievable.
The resource includes prompt pictures to appeal to visual learners and can be used as a standalone resource or in conjunction with the OCR Hodder Revision Guide, where all of the answers can be found. This resource can also be used in conjunction with the topic placemats that I have produced to support students in lessons. In particular, I have successfully used the TOPIC ON A PAGE summaries with the ‘EXAM TECHNIQUE’ side of the placemats so when students are given exam questions, they can quickly find relevant supporting knowledge to use in a response. I have used this resource successfully with students targeted Levels 4 - 9. It could be easily adapted for students working on or below L3. The ‘fill in the gaps’ prompts can be removed for higher ability students. I Recommend printing enlarged on A3 paper.

9-1 OCR History B, SHP History Learning/Topic Placemats for The People’s Health: 1250 to present day
Written in PowerPoint
Topics Covered:
The People’s Health GCSE Learning Placemat – Topic 1: c1250-1500 Medieval England
The People’s Health GCSE Learning Placemat – Topic 2: c1500—1750 Early Modern England
The People’s Health GCSE Learning Placemat – Topic 3: Industrial Britain 1750-1900
The People’s Health GCSE Learning Placemat – Topic 4: Modern Britain - 1900 onwards
(The reverse side of the placemat remains the same throughout this study unit).
These interactive learning placemats were designed to meet the challenges of the new 9-1 GCSE. They build upon the successful ‘Edexcel Medicine Through Time’ Placemats that I previously designed (and which received 5* reviews by all who have purchased them up to the time of launching these new materials – see: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/9-1-edexcel-gcse-history-of-medicine-place-mat-question-structure-11627611 ). My learning placemats have been identified as best practice during a ‘Challenge Partners’ review as well as being identified as best practice by other History teachers on the Olevi ‘Outstanding Teacher Programme’. These OCR Placemats are produced to the same quality and have been used by GCSE Students within my MAT.
The new design learning placemats support both teachers and students in addressing the:
a) dramatic increase in the curriculum content needed for the different units
b) support the need for increased literacy demands through a language for learning section
c) help students become familiar and more confident in recognising the correct response needed for the unprecedented number of different question styles
The placemats are designed to be double sided. One side focuses on the CONTENT: providing an overview of key knowledge and understanding needed (this will change for each topic area within this GCSE unit).
Every placemat across the GCSE range is designed to encourage greater understanding of:
Historical Context - through timelines, picture prompts and key words
Awareness of the ‘big picture’ so students can see how individual lessons fit into the unit and make clearer links between prior and future learning – through ‘Big Picture’ questions. (Identified as good practice by leading practitioner such as Hattie and Morrison-McGill).
Better Literacy – through selected ‘language for learning’ vocab box.
Memory prompts to support revision – through the use of carefully selected images - all categorised under themes that underline each period.
Increased awareness of metacognition – through PME (Progress, Monitor and Evaluation Time) questions to encourage students to deconstruct their learning and identify key factors (eg. Ideas, attitudes & beliefs, wealth & poverty, urbanisation, science and technology and the role of local and national government) and make links between features. A pictorial metacognition man with 5 question prompts will support student reflection.
The reverse side contains guidance on EXAM TECHNIQUE through:
Identifying the nature of the question styles for each GCSE Unit and the allocated marks available.
Examiners leveled mark schemes
Support writing frames with generic sentence starters

And his actions, far from foolish, were based on a brutally simple and far-from-glorious plan. Toby Stephens plays Custer and Michael Praed narrates.
