Would you like to double your Student Success Rate at Key Stage 4 and 5?

11-06-2010   


This is possible when running a vocational qualification side by side with the academic qualification.  By doing so I doubled the outcome and provided students with the opportunity to achieve an additional Level 2 qualification, equivalent to KS4: GCSE A*-C.  This is also available at KS5: ‘A’ Level GCE.

How did I ensure all criteria were met for both awarding bodies?  I developed a simple and time efficient system to track achievement.  As a practising qualified NVQ assessor and internal verifier I can support you in developing and adapting schemes of work, creating and developing your simple and time efficient system to track achievement for both qualifications.   This will also meet the national standards.

The vocational qualification demonstrates students’ knowledge, understanding and attitudes through practical skills and incorporates functional skills, personal learning and thinking skills.  

I will guide you through the units, criteria and range.  You will then have a scheme of work, which provides differentiated teaching and learning opportunities for the students to meet the challenge and demands of the qualifications.   You will also have all assessment materials.  You will then be ready to include the vocational qualification within the curriculum offer.

You may wish to host a CPD day or series of days.   When you contact me we can discuss how CPD can be tailored to your specific needs.
