Updated for 2025 AQA GCSE Physics and Combined Science (8463 / 8464).
A fully editable, ready-to-teach lesson covering P2.5 – Thermal Conductivity of Materials.
Students learn how different materials conduct heat, how insulation reduces energy loss, and how to interpret data from real-world examples.
The lesson combines particle theory, experimental context, and calculation practice to build a deep understanding of heat transfer by conduction and its impact on energy efficiency.
Includes free AI Long-Answer Feedback – students can submit extended-response questions online and receive instant, AQA-aligned WWW/EBI feedback to refine scientific accuracy, structure, and reasoning.
