Description
Exploring the Exam: develop your understanding of externally assessed components
Building on the support available on our website, as well as our ‘Exam Review’ sessions, our ‘Exploring the Exam’ event for A Level Design Technology: Product Design (H406) uses past series’ assessment materials, including new candidate exemplars, to help equip you with the knowledge and understanding to optimise your delivery of all externally assessed components for both paper 1 and paper 2. The event will support you to develop an in-depth understanding of the assessment expectations, marking criteria and outcomes from past series. You’ll have opportunities to practice marking real candidate responses; receive guidance on how and why candidate responses secured a range of marks; interact with expert trainers and explore ideas to enhance teaching and learning for future preparation and delivery.
