Teachers should select activities appropriate to their students and the curriculum time available.\nThe order is by no means prescriptive and there are many alternative ways in which the content could be organised.\nThe resources indicate those resources commonly available to schools, and other references that may be helpful. Resources are only given in brief and risk assessments should be carried out.\nAssumed coverage\nThe scheme of work assumes a two year course for the teaching of the A-level specification. Teaching and learning is based on four sessions per week. The three components that make up the A-level qualification, Paper 1, Paper 2 and the non-exam assessment (NEA), should be allocated appropriate teaching sessions to reflect their weighting allocations: 50% NEA, 50% written examination. This scheme of work is structured to enable teachers to focus on content that will prepare students for assessment at the end of year .\n\u000f\nContents\nYou can use the title links to jump directly
