if your looking for a homework task that will engage, motivate and enthuse students, then this is perfect! This has been the most successful project homework I have set which allowed students to get creative in an exciting and relevant way.

After a lot of research and networking around this issue as well as attending the latest AQA CPD on Assessment. I have devised a marking matrix which will help you to assess students against the latest 9-1 grade boundaries.

A homework marking sheet is also attached for quick convenience in assessing the homework submission. Could also work as a class task.
