specification references are shown at the start of each section, whilst the learning outcomes indicate what most learners should be able to achieve after the work is completed.\nTimings have been suggested but are approximate. Teachers should select activities appropriate to their learners 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.
