My classes have been struggling with understanding how to approach the questions and understanding the pre-released information. These handouts are walking students through what to expect in the questions and it gets them using some metacognitive strategies to reflect upon their revision of topics and organise their notes in preparartion for the exam. There is a clear focus on Paper 1 but Paper 2 is covered.

I have used the exam board spec to create some PLCs. the word documents are ones I give my students to rag their knowledge ready for targeting the revision. check document size before printing though as 2 are A3 size as the units have a lot in them so I print A3-A4 in printer settings. the PowerPoint's are just the checklist in an editable format. I copy these into my revision PowerPoint's towards the exam period to make it clear for students with knowledge gaps. I hope this helps or is a starting point for you. please leave feedback.

I have used this in my GCSE Classes to get the students to become more independent as they study this topic

I use this lesson with my year 9 students it looks at both geographical influences on our identity & social influences

This PowerPoint has the lesson on it and there are slides that can easily be printed off for hand-outs/worksheets as well. I use this lesson with my Year 9 students but it can be adapted easily.

I use this lesson with my year 9 students as part of their community cohesion unit. Please note that the opinions to be discussed are controversial and have been picked on purpose to enable discussion about whether it's fair people hold those beliefs/stereotypes of the British.

I use this lesson with my year 7 students. It always seems to get them engaged. I hope you enjoy it too.

I use this lesson with my year 7 students. you need to be a bit 'tongue in cheek' getting them to sing a 'national anthem' of who wonderful you are and tell them they are doing the tasks or they get a week of detentions etc, BUT the kids remember this lesson and they understand the different types of government from it.

I use this once a term to give detailed feedback quickly to students. Do not try to use this every time you mark (as if you are like me and have about 300 students you teach it's too much workload wise). You could get students to use this as part of peer assessment based upon your feedback too. I hope you find it helpful.

I use this with my Year 9 students. The past paper questions are from the Old OCR GCSE citizenship papers
