UPDATED FOR 2020
This is a guideline on how to achieve perfect exam technique on every type of question that comes up on the Edexcel A Level Business exam papers. As a previous Edexcel examiner I am a specialist in exam technique and deliver this to schools around the country.
It includes how to answer:
4 Mark ‘Calculate’ Questions
4 Mark ‘Explain’ Questions
8/10/12/20 Mark questions using PEACH paragraphs
Purchase it before I release the ‘Every student AIMS for a good conclusion’ and ‘Worked examples with examiner commentary’ and receive these free.
Lesson PowerPoint which is very student led with several small tasks building up knowledge of The Product Life Cycle including:
- the stages and how sales volume interacts
- placing known products on the PLC where they believe they are at now
- extension strategies (when they are usually used and when they SHOULD be used by good businesses)
- how profit changes throughout the Product Life Cycle (just need to draw it on one of your slides)
- Exam style questions
Enjoy!
I have basically done a new and improved formula resource covering everything they need to know.
Includes interpretation notes to help students interpret the results of their calculations for analysis and evaluation.
It includes examples with working for the trickier topics such as Critical Path, Investment Appraisal, moving averages etc.
Due to the lack of exam papers I have written one for my current Year 12’s to sit as their end of year Theme 1 mock.
Paper layout exactly the same as Paper 1 real exam.
Case studies are for Boohoo clothing and Costa.
Section A with theory based questions (one break even chart Q not exactly exam board standard but wanted to test more in depth full understanding)
Section B includes an original small business case study (kids soft toy play area)
Also includes one Q on segmentation and one Q on added value as key topics that were highlighted in previous assessment for interleaved practice
This resource contains case studies which can form the basis for a practice exam paper or just general application of all aspects of the CTEC Unit 15 Change Management Specification.
Case studies included:
Lego - New CEO / change in product portfolio
Topshop - change in work environment
Smile in a Day - change in working conditions
‘Brexit Gas’ - change in technology & HR practices (name of company changed for legal reasons - rights not provided to use business info by business)
Created from the official mark schemes with the added insight of a senior examiner, these student friendly, simplified assessment sheets covered 10,12 and 20 mark questions are perfect for:
- teachers to assess students work and easily show where students need to make progress in their skills
- students to easily self and peer assess to improve progress
Instructions:
Read the student response, highlight (literally using a highlighter) the level descriptor that best describes the response for each skill focusing on one skill at a time, Knowledge, Application, Analysis and then Evaluation.
You will then see clearly what level the overall response is using a ‘best fit’ approach, for example if you have highlighted as below:
Knowledge - Level 3
Application - Level 3
Analysis - Level 2
Evaluation - Level 2
You will clearly place the student at the top of level 2 or the bottom of level 3.
This resource is perfect to use with Mastering Edexcel Business A Level Exam Technique - Writing a PEACH of a paragraph.
It is a perfect tool for students to use sitting A Level Edexcel Business Studies to plan extended answer questions.
I have used it with my students and those that I tutor and it has improved development of chains and judgements to the point where students have improved by 1-2 grades on average following a month of use.
Lessons with starters, activities, key terms and definitions notes, case study with exam practice - all you could need.
Took me 3-4 lessons to deliver.
Taught by myself on the Edexcel GCSE spec but could easily be tweaked (if even needed?).
Should take one lesson and possibly a homework (exam style questions at the end - depends on the level of class discussion)
Hover some images in presentation mode for videos to be used near start of the lesson.
Includes full lesson, covers JIT, JIC and stock control charts.
Made a kahoot to recap production, productivity and quality focus to use at the start to lead in to the lesson https://create.kahoot.it/k/0167e948-e6cd-4da3-8fe2-7acd7957d831
Having been on all the CTEC training for Business I decided to create some mock papers as there is only one specimen on the site.
The paper is written in the exactly same style as the real thing and is accompanied by a realistic case study on Lego which I consider a good mix of recognised but not likely covered in class to the extent where they don’t have to think on their feet.
This is a guideline on how to write a well thought through conclusion for 10, 12 and 20 mark questions that come up on the Edexcel A Level Business exam papers.
This is the 2nd in the series of Mastering Edexcel Exam Technique following on from ‘Writing a PEACH of a paragraph’.
As a previous Edexcel examiner I am a specialist in exam technique and deliver this to schools around the country.
Mock Paper 2 written for my class mock.
Written so that it doesn’t re-cover any topics already covered explicitly in past papers so it allows students extra practice (as much as possible).
Written completely using holiday market context to get them into the mindset for Paper 3.
Includes a smaller business in section A and a larger more international business in section B.
MARK SCHEME NOW UPLOADED
Will be bundled with the mock Paper 1 I have created to save you some ££££.
Anyone purchasing both will receive model answers written by senior examiner largely following the PEACH framework for paragraph structure and AIMS/MOPS for conclusions.
Can’t remember what year that question is from on a topic you are teaching?
This is the answer to your problem!
Simply select the topic from the specification point in the spreadsheet and it will generate all the questions linked to that topic with a hyperlink to the part of the case study extract they need.
We give it to our students to use so they can easily practice away until their heart is content [latest papers not added so they can be used for mocks]
Created by Jack Goodrich and myself to provide our listeners of The Business as Usual Podcast

Powerpoint with refresh of key objectives for small businesses before going into how business aims and objectives have changed (with videos on my cloud) for 4 big businesses:
1 - Tesco
2 - Clintons Cards

4 - Marks & Spencer (includes exam practice questions)
Duration: 1 lesson & a home learning
To use whilst teaching Calculated Risks as part of Enterprise in GCSE or to introduce it at A Level.

The lesson is designed to be engaging and get the students to actively participate throughout and has a mix of introducing the concept of calculated risks in general and then application to business scenarios.

To be able to define a calculated risk (C/D)
To be able to explain why a decision was made considering risk and reward (C/B)
To be able to advise a business in a decision through calculating the risk to reward ratio (A*/A)
To be able to suggest how a business could minimise the risk in a scenario to improve the risk to reward ratio (A* / A Level Extension)
Everything you need for 2-3 hours learning the key elements of Source of Finance.
Mainly aimed at GCSE/BTEC Level 2/3 but can be easily adapted with a little more detail and trickier scenarios for A Level.
Included:
- Research Task - for completion in class or at home as flipped (recommended)
- Card sort for starter, internal/external and long term/short term methods
- PowerPoint with task slides as well as definitions and pro’s and con’s of sources
