BACK DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND! Designed on Microsoft excel, this tracking document will help you keep track of the progress of your KS4 students, with specific columns for each of the questions on the exam paper. The sheet will auto calculate INDIVIDUAL GRADES FOR EACH QUESTION, total marks on the paper as well as total overall marks, which then feed into an overall grade based on the boundaries released by AQA (JUNE 2018 OFFICIAL BOUNDARIES). Furthermore, to account for boundary movement next year, I have added a buffer column which shows you the grade that would be achieved should the boundary increase by 5 marks on this year’s grade, as it did last year for some grades. All you need to do is add the pupil information from SIMS/your marksheet and the marks they have achieved for each question and the rest is done for you.

A scheme of work I planned and resourced, including powerpoints and accompanying pdfs and word documents (several pdfs are taken from eduqas and used as part of lessons). Includes MTP. Guides students through the entire C3 brief including screenplay, shooting script and evaluation over 25 lessons. Discounts are available on the bundle linked below: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12820645

Designed on Microsoft excel, this tracking document will help you keep track of the progress of your KS4 Media Studies students, with specific columns for section of each exam paper and for individual coursework marks. This NEW AND IMPROVED sheet will auto calculate total marks on each unit AS WELL AS ESTIMATED GRADES FOR EACH QUESTION - which will be converted into a 9-1 grade as well as totalling overall marks, which then feed into an overall grade prediction. The predictions have been calculated using last year's WJEC grade boundaries and the % of marks needed for each grade on each unit. This % mark has then been converted for the new weighting on the new spec. All you need to do is add the pupil information and the marks they have achieved for each question and the rest is done for you. Please be aware that these are not official grade boundaries and it is guess work at this stage. I have tried to make my predictions as reliable as possible by converting from old spec boundaries and converting % etc, but cannot guarantee that these will be the exact boundaries provided by the board. I have also created similar spreadsheets for AQA GCSE English 9-1, old spec AQA Media GCSE and Media A level too; check out my shop for these. A Level will too be added in due course - subscribe for notifications! For reference - I have mapped an old D grade to a new grade 3, a C to a 4, a B to a 5, an A to a 7 and an A* to an 8. Any problems with this or formula doing strange things, please contact me on steel123@hotmail.com
