Summary
Review strategies to enable the students with high prior attainment to aim for grade 9 by allowing them to develop a much deeper understanding of the science content and context.
Look at how you can help students create complex schema, provide high quality practical work and structure lessons so they can tackle terminal examinations with confidence. We will also explore effective study and revision techniques that support attainment throughout secondary school study.
