Review record
Scope: 120 current lessons: 78 Humanities lessons from Autumn 1 to Spring 2 and 42 RE lessons across Autumn 1 and 2. Each of the three pathways has 40 lessons. Fourteen missing Humanities Autumn 2 BUILD/GROW lessons were recovered from an earlier supplied pack and revised.
The supplied Humanities scheme also plans 39 Summer lesson slots. No matching created Summer lessons were in the reviewed packs. RE source planning covers Autumn only. Those periods are not represented as completed lessons.
Changes across the packs
- Matched the stated outcome, teaching sequence and assessment evidence to the supplied scheme; corrected internal examples, sources and datasets where they did not serve those aims.
- Linked worked models to relevant named evidence. Added retrieval prompts, supported/standard/stretch routes, independent organisers, printable shared-activity cards and teacher answers.
- Kept varied shared work: matching, sequencing, decisions, maps, source investigation, ranking, graphs, presentations and portfolios. Added keyboard-operated checks and feedback to card activities.
- Retained BUILD’s concrete and symbol-supported tasks, GROW’s explanation and comparison, and LAUNCH’s evidence and application. RE LAUNCH remains an adult-life pathway without GCSE marking bands.
- Rebuilt offline captioned teaching models and editable slides. Every lesson has a one-page A4 knowledge organiser, pupil pack and teacher notes.
Checks and remaining limits
All 120 HTML lessons passed automated DOM execution checks for the nine stages, route controls and their tested interactions, with no JavaScript errors or duplicate IDs. All 240 revised Word files were rendered; page-bound checks found no empty pages or text outside the page. PDF organisers were checked for one-page A4 output. Slide packages were validated and rendered. Representative and dense page layouts were visually reviewed. Eleven data workbooks were created; fieldwork blank/zero behaviour was tested.
Live browser layout, phone/touch behaviour and playback on a school device could not be verified here because the available browser blocked local files. Check those before teaching. Source restrictions are recorded separately. This is a resource review against the supplied pathway guidance, not an assessment of individual learners; adjust reading, communication and sensory support using their plans.
UAS evidence prompts are included, but the supplied material does not identify the centre’s approved unit codes or exact statements. Staff must map evidence to those selected units before claiming accreditation. Local fieldwork still needs a suitable location, consent and the centre’s normal arrangements.
Lesson-by-lesson record
Outcome and assessment below reproduce the supplied scheme. Each lesson folder contains the revised materials.
LAUNCH_A2_W01 · Maps symbols and grid references
Outcome: Use maps OS symbols and grid references.
Assessment: F: map check and location/pattern question.
Shared activity: map — Compare the practice-map key with the linked OS symbol guide. Read eastings before northings and practise four-figure references.
Independent task: Identify the genuine OS abbreviations Sch, PO and FB using the supplied key. Locate three features on the separate practice map using grid references and direction. Answer one independent location or pattern question.
Changes: Worked model linked to named relevant evidence; Arrival retrieval and pathway-specific supports; Task organiser and paper interaction cards; Consistent media transcript and source labels
LAUNCH_A2_W02 · Using digital mapping and GIS
Outcome: Use digital mapping or GIS to describe a place.
Assessment: F: annotated map and independent pattern question.
Shared activity: gis — Toggle road, building and place layers on the supplied local map. Compare what becomes visible and what remains uncertain.
Independent task: Capture or print an annotated map with at least two layers. Locate two features and describe a spatial pattern. Answer an independent question about what the map cannot establish.

LAUNCH_A2_W03 · Settlement and urbanisation
Outcome: Explain settlement and urbanisation.
Assessment: F: explanation and two exit questions.
Shared activity: sort — Sort descriptions of land use, settlement growth and urbanisation. Use practice data to test what a claim actually measures.
Independent task: Explain how work, transport and services can contribute to settlement growth. Use a diagram and the labelled practice data. Distinguish urban growth from a rising national urban share.

LAUNCH_A2_W04 · Local fieldwork and data collection
Outcome: Conduct local area fieldwork and collect data.
Assessment: F: method, safe participation and accurate data.
Shared activity: fieldwork — Agree a manageable enquiry and a consistent land-use category system. Practise one tally before going to the agreed observation area.
Independent task: Collect dated observations for a small agreed local area or accessible school site. Record location, categories, method and your own role. Check the tally and retain raw data for the next lesson.
Changes: Worked model linked to named relevant evidence; Arrival retrieval and pathway-specific supports; Task organiser and paper interaction cards; Consistent media transcript and source labels
LAUNCH_A2_W05 · From fieldwork to spreadsheet and graph
Outcome: Record fieldwork in a spreadsheet and graph it.
Assessment: F: accurate transfer, graph and pattern statement.
Shared activity: graph — Transfer a practice tally into the prepared table. Choose a bar chart and check category names, values and units.
Independent task: Enter your own previous-lesson data into the editable spreadsheet. Create a labelled graph and verify the transfer against the raw tally. Describe a pattern and one limitation of the sample.

LAUNCH_A2_W06 · Comparing places through online evidence
Outcome: Compare the local area with a contrasting place using online evidence.
Assessment: F: comparison and source evaluation.
Shared activity: compare — Compare Middlesbrough and Helmsley at similar map scales. Check creator, date, coverage and the question each source can answer.
Independent task: Create a comparison using online maps of both named places. Support two contrasts with comparable evidence. Evaluate one source’s usefulness and a limitation, recording access date and scale.

LAUNCH_A2_W07 · Writing up a fieldwork enquiry
Outcome: Complete a fieldwork enquiry write up.
Assessment: S: enquiry process, map/data accuracy and conclusion.
Shared activity: portfolio — Review a sample conclusion against its data. Check that the report answers the original enquiry.
Independent task: Assemble question, method, location map, actual data, graph and conclusion. Explain what the evidence supports. Evaluate one method limitation and retain your individual contribution.
