Every student is unique but there are still some common areas for last minute improvement as we approach the 2025 GCSE Exam series. The 4 lesson Gradebuster series covers those areas where I think improvement can be made quickly. They feature:
It's all about the conscious crafting of language. Examiners don't need complicated stories; they need thoughtful and imaginative use of language. This session will deliver a clear "To Do" list to move through that markscheme.
Assessing an unseen poem can be terrifying for students. They do not need to understand every word but do need the confidence to make good choices regarding what to talk about. I will supply a simple process and a top tip list of what to include.
Speech, article, leaflet, essay, letter? I'll remind students about the conventions for each and give them a clear checklist of what to include.
This applies to every paper in Language and Literature. Students can often tell us what they feel about a piece of writing but don't tell us why. This session will give a check list of what to do when zooming in on evidence to deliver the most convincing analysis. This is important everywhere!
The live schedule is below with all sessions taking place in the week commencing 7th April. However, you can also book the video option which means that you can work through the session at a time that suits you.
