What the course aims to do:
The course aims to support teachers of all levels in the delivery of the NEA. It needs to have a focus on using the research and stakeholders feedback to enhance the NEA and allow for good iteration. This should also include ways to develop work, act on the feedback and how to show evidence. Include how to moderator and find the relevant evidence threaded throughout the work to maximise the marks, looking at all the strands and where this is impacted.
How the course will fulfil those aims:
Teacher should leave the course with a clearer understanding of how students need to use any research and feedback to enhance their work and develop their design ideas, and where they can gain marks within all the strands.
