1 Welcome to our Key Stage 4 Information Evening
2 New GCSEs - How have they changed? In 2015: New (9-1) GCSEs in Mathematics, English Literature and English Language Now: 2016: New (9-1) GCSEs in all subjects at Cotham apart from Textiles, Psychology, Child Development, Graphic Products and Resistant Materials (A*-G)
3 With the new GCSE broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 4 and above as currently achieve a grade C and above broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 7 and above as currently achieve a grade A and above broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 1 and above as currently achieve a grade G and above
4 What do we know about the new GCSEs? New, more demanding content, which has been developed by the government and the exam boards. Courses will be designed for two years of study students will take all their exams in one period at the end of their course. Exams can only be split into foundation tier and higher tier if one exam paper does not give all students the opportunity to show their knowledge and abilities.
5 Tiers are different... More challenging content in both Foundation tier (can now access old B grade) and Higher tier. Important that you trust our professional judgement on the most suitable tier Far greater % of students will be entered for Foundation
6 Independent study Home learning this year will be important consolidation and help with this should be sought from your child s teachers. Next year home learning will consist of regular revision papers.
7 Make the most of online resources
8 Mathematics Both Foundation and Higher tier now get more difficult more quickly. Students are likely to find the start of year 10 challenging. Due to higher grades being available (up to B grade standard) on the foundation tier, we anticipate that a much higher proportion of students will be entered for Foundation level. This should not be viewed as a negative. The syllabus is larger than in the past and students are expected to remember more formulae. Year 10 Maths assessments will be in November, March and June.
9 Mathematics Resources for independent learning: Online revision and selfassessment tool Textbooks - in class & from library Kerboodle online textbook (with hyperlinks to online resources) Mathematics HW Club - every Monday and Wednesday in A209 after school until 4:15 Run by A-level Mathematicians Revision guides Video tutorials Comprehensive online lessons and self-assessments
10 English Language A linear course, no coursework. All final examinations will take place at the end of year 11. No foundation or higher tier. Skills based - not a huge amount of revision can be done in terms of memorising long lists of quotations etc. Students can revise by ensuring they can use language terminology fluently. Students should also be reading regularly in their own time to improve their inference and summary skills as well as improving their vocabulary.
11 English Literature A linear course, no coursework. All final examinations will take place at the end of year 11. No foundation or higher tier. Students will cover three of the four set texts in Year 10: a Victorian novel, the poetry anthology and a modern text. Students need to know these texts well - regular re-reading of texts is essential. Students need to use their independent learning time to write summaries of chapters and character summaries whether the teacher has set this as formal homework or not. CLOSED BOOK EXAMS

Focus on language structures and language acquisition.
16 How can you support your child?
17 Parental support is eight times more important in determining a child s academic success than social class (TES 2003) The Campaign for Learning found that parental involvement in their child s education can mean the difference between an A* and mediocrity at GCSE
18 So where do I come in? 1.Support at home, quiet work space, equipment they need 2.Talk to them about their school work, get them to explain what they ve done in school 3.Be interested and engaged 4.Help them with organising themselves, check their planners weekly, ask to see their homework 5.Allow them to Post-it your house with key / trigger words 6.They need good sleep and nutrition 7.They need balance
