Don’t just copy material from the knowledge organiser into your book.This will not increase your retrieval strength, since you are not actually trying to remember anything. It won’t stick!
TOP TIP
Why should you self-quiz?Your mind is split into two parts: the working-memory and the long-term memory. Everybody’s working-memory is limited, and therefore it can very easily become overwhelmed. Your long-term memory, on the other hand, is effectively limitless.
You can support your working memory by storing key facts and processes in long term memory. These facts and processes can then be retrieved to stop your working memory becoming overloaded.
Research shows that students remember 50% more when they test themselves after learning something.
This booklet contains knowledge organisers for all of your subjects. Each knowledge organiser has the key information that needs to be memorised to help you master your subject and be successful in lessons.
How should I self-quiz?There are many different ways to learn the material in your knowledge organiser. Mr Brown has demonstrated how use your knowledge organiser effectively in a Video which can be found on the school website. Whichever method you decide to use, your tutor will ask to see evidence of your work.
You could:
a) Cover – Write – Check: Cover up one section of the knowledge organiser, and try to write out as much as you can from memory. Check the knowledge organiser to see if you are right and correct any mistakes using a different colour.
b) Use your knowledge organisers to create flashcards. These could be double sided with a question on one side and the answer on the other. Alternatively, a keyword on one side and a definition or diagram on the other. These are then used for self-quizzing.
c) Draw a mind map, jotting down everything that you can remember from the knowledge organiser. Check accuracy and then repeat.
d) Make up mnemonics (e.g. BIDMAS) to help you remember key facts. Write these out from memory.

Independent Study Schedule This table shows you which knowledge organisers you should use each day for Independent Study. Remember that your workbooks will be checked each morning in tutor time. To effectively ‘self-quiz’ and therefore learn the content, you should dedicate 20 minutes to each slot on the timetable.

Any work that is not TANC will be considered incomplete.
What are the Independent Study expectations?You must aim to meet the following expectations. Any adjustments to these expectations must be discussed with your Tutor :
• Check the schedule below to see which knowledge organisers you should use each day.
• Complete one full page for each subject on the schedule in your workbook every day.
• Use your knowledge organiser after you have finished to mark and correct your own work.
• Write the date and subject heading for each piece of work.

* It is vital that you have opportunities to practise your extended writing. This will be completed in your English books and will be checked by your English teacher.
* Science homework expectations; for each Science slot on the timetable above, you are expected to spend at least 20 minutes on Tassomai. This will be supplemented on a fortnightly basis with a retrieval home-learning lesson. The purpose of the retrieval lesson is to ensure that you are constantly reviewing and recapping topics that have been taught to you through year 9 and earlier in year 10.
In order to ensure you are fully prepared for your GCSE your teachers may recommend that you spend some additional time on their subject. This is to support you in spacing out your revision so that you are not overwhelmed when the exams start. Any additional work will be checked in lesson and not in tutor time.

St James will be joining The Great Kindness Challenge from the 25th to 29th of January. During this week, instead of doing an hour’s work from your knowledge organiser, we are going to ask you to spend an hour with your
family or in the community doing kind acts for others. Your tutor, teachers or guardians will sign off when you tick a kind act off your list and then at the end of the week we will be able to see how many kind acts we
managed to do as a school. Use the list to help or think up your own kind act; be as creative as you can! Think of the difference we can make when we work together to be kind.

Data Protection Act 1998 - This is a piece of U.K. legislation that has been passed to protect your rights as an individual to have your personal data collected, stored and used in a suitable manner.Freedom of Information Act 2000 - The Freedom of Information Act 2000 provides public access to information held by public authorities. It does this in two ways: public authorities are obliged to publish certain information about their activities; and. members of the public are entitled to request information from public authoritiesComputer Misuse Act 1990 - The Computer Misuse Act enables people to be prosecuted if they commit one of the following offences:1. Unauthorised access to computer material2. Unauthorised access with intent to commit or facilitate a crime3. Unauthorised modification of computer material.This mainly relates to hacking and distributing viruses although other computer related crimes can be tried under this Act.If you are found guilty of these offences you could face up to a five year prison sentence and a very hefty fine.Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 - This Act was introduced to protect the copyright of individuals who have created original pieces of work. This can mean authors of books, composers of music, software developers etc.Software piracy has become a major problem with people regularly copying software from friends or purchasing illegally made copies of applications from markets or other such places. It is estimated that at least 40% of all software is copied. The penalties for breaking this Act include up to two years in prison and unlimited fines.Creative Commons - A legal agreement / contract document. A licence, in general, sets out the conditions you must agree to in order to install the software. You often see it turn up in the install process, where you have to click an "I agree" button to carry on with the installation. A 'creative commons' licence was developed to allow 'Open Source' software to be distributed freely but with the provisio that you do not sell it on, as if it was your own property. The licence also insists that if you modify the source code to suit your own requirements, then that software must also be covered by the creative commons licence. The idea it to allow anyone to use / modify open source software and then pass on the improvements to the rest of the Open source community so it benefits everyone.

Hardwood or Softwood?
Hardwood isn’t necessarily harder than softwood. For example, balsa wood, which is known as one of the lightest woods in the world, is actually a hardwood!
Hardwood comes from ‘deciduous’ trees. They are trees that are generally have broad leaves, bear fruit and drop their leaves in winter and are normally slower growing.
Coniferous trees are cone bearing (think pine cone), have needle like leaves and are most often evergreen. They are generally much faster growing.
They tend to be less dense than deciduous trees, and as such are seen as a softwood! However, as balsa proves, there is no weight requirement to being a hardwood.

Thermo or Thermo-Setting?
Thermo polymers can be reformed into new products because they can be reheated and remoulded. This makes them potentially sustainable if we can make sure our thermo polymers do not get sent to landfill and get recycled 100% of the time.
Thermo-setting polymers can be moulded only once. After that they are set in that shape due to the crosslinking that occurs at molecular level when they are first formed. They do not soften when heated but would burn if they are continually heated.
KEY WAY TO REMEMBER WHICH IS WHICH…THERMO POLYMERS are like ice/water. Applying heat changes their form as many times as you like.THERMO SETTING POLYMERS are more like an egg, once it is heated it stays hard. Keep Heating it and it will burn.

BLOW MOULDING (including extrusion)is the process used to make hollow polymer parts like bottles. It is process that is best suited to the continuous product-ion often of disposable plastic drinks bottles.
VACUUM FORMING is the process of heating sheet thermo-polymer and using a vacuum to force the now malleable material over a positive mould. The stages are shown on the right.a) Heat the Polymer sheetb) Wait for the sheet to become malleablec) Raise the former into the malleable polymer sheetd) Remove the air underneath the former to force the polymer
over the former.VF is a process most suitable for batch production as in comparsion to IM or BM it is slower and more labour intensive. Fridge liners are made this way.
ENGINEERING D T – INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES know your METAL FORMING processes
DIE CASTING is the process of pouring molten metal into a metal mould (or die) of a higher temperature. It is a very similar process to IM for polymer but with metal. (read definition on left)
what is SCALE OF PRODUCTION?S of P is the type of manufacturing that is going to be used to make the quantity of products needed. There are 4 main categories.One-off production A product that is only going to be made once like a bespoke hand made item or a prototype.Batch production, more than one identical product up to a large batch of 1000’s so CNC machines and flexible manufacturing techniques are used that are easier to change.Mass production, Produced on an assembly line where products are passed along a line for each step of manufacturing. Large numbers makes specialised expensive machines affordable.Continuous Production is fully automated production, so products and components may have to be designed so the automated machinery can handle them. Very high numbers of constantly needed products like drinks cans are made in a fixed, inflexible production line
IM produces very complex and detailed moulding and most polymer casings are made this way. A key feature is that the IM parts can have intricate features to help in assembly built in making production quicker and therefore saving money.
know your POLYMER MOULDING processesINJECTION MOULDING (see below right) is the process of injecting molten polymer into a mould (or
Die). It is a mass production process as the set up costs are very high so it is used only when a large quantity of products that are identical are needed.
SAND CASTING is a workshop process most suited for one off or small batch

ENGINEERING Design – Users Needs & Product RequirementsUSER NEEDS = Things the ‘User needs’ the product to do or be. You can think of it like questions the user asks of a product i.e.
• Aesthetics—does it look good? • Ergonomics—does it feel good to use? • Anthropometrics—is it the right size for me? • Benefits & Features—does it do all the things I want it to do? • Product Safety—is it safe to use?
AESTHETICS refers to the shape and form of the product.
ERGONOMICS involves the study of people and their relationship with the environment around them. It often involves research into the way people interact with products and the environment.
ANTHROPOMETRIC data is used to determine the size, shape and/or form of a product, making it more comfortable for humans to use and easier to use. FEATURES of a product describe what it does and what functions it has.
BENEFITS of a product describe what the user gets out of it, such as solving a problem or improving their life in some way.
For example, the FEATURES of a child’s electronic toy might include a range of different activities (colour and shape games, spelling games, counting games, etc.); the BENEFITS to the child will include developing their motor skills (control of their hands) and brain development (learning to spell, count, recognise shapes and colours, etc.)
PRODUCT SAFETY describes features of the product designed to make it safe to use and to reduce or eliminate the possibility of damage or injury to the user. For example, children’s toys will be designed not to have small parts that could be swallowed. Electrical products will be insulated to prevent people from touching live components and getting a shock.
PRODUCT REQUIREMENTS Other than what the User may want a product to do there are many other factors the designer must consider. These ‘product requirements’ are the specific needs and key functionality of the product. Common considerations for Product requirements would include;
• Working Environment — where the product will be used • Aesthetics – does its form help you to understand how it works?• Function— what purpose the product has • Features — what the product can do • Limitations and Constraints (Size, Weight, Functional Limitation) • Ergonomics— Can a wider range of users comfortably use the product?• Performance — how well the product fulfils its function • Target Group / Intended Users — Does it appeal to its intended customer?• Lifecycle — the impacts of the product’s manufacture, use and disposal
WORKING ENVIRONMENT refers to how the product is suited to the environment it will be used in.For example, a microwave oven will need to be of an appropriate size to fit into a kitchen, be easy to clean
and resistant to moisture, have a long enough cable to allow the user to position it where they want, and not produce too much noise when in operation. This can also include safety aspects, such as not becoming too hot to touch.
LIMITATIONS AND CONSTRAINTS refer to aspects of the product that must be restricted to ensure it remains usable. Size and weight are typical constraints — a product that is intended to be portable should not be too heavy to easily move around or too large to carry. This can also include aspects like durability (how well the product stands up to repeated use).
PERFORMANCE refers to how well a product performs the functions it was designed for. For example, a chair should be able to support the weight of the user, be stable and not topple over, be comfortable to sit in for long periods of time, be durable enough to survive many years of use, and be light enough to move around.
LIFECYCLE refers to how the product will be made, and from what materials, how it will be maintained throughout its useful life, and how it will be disposed of at EoL(End of Life). This has a major influence on the choice of materials, especially if the product should be recyclable.
Some of the PRODUCT REQUIREMENTS are also in the USER NEEDS as there is natural overlap in these 2 sections. The examples in Italics do not need to be copied out unless they are helpful.

‘If love be rough with you, be rough with love;Prick love for pricking, and you beat love down.’ (1.4)‘O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!/It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night’ (1.5)‘Now, by the stock and honour of my kin, To strike him dead, I hold it not a sin.’ (1.5)‘My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand/To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.’ (1.5)
‘But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun’ (2.2)‘Deny thy father and refuse thy name;’ (2.2)‘Call me but love and I’ll be new baptised;/ henceforth I never will be Romeo’ (2.2)‘O, swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon,/That monthly changes in her circled orb,’ (2.2)

Send thy man away.’ (2.5)
Reflecting the surge of interest in the classical philosophies and fascination with the human condition of his times, Romeo and Juliet explores the very essence of human conflicts: internal, emotional and societal.
Shakespeare’s presentation of Paris’ suit and Capulet’s response is used to establish traditional, higher class, Elizabethan attitudes towards marriage and courtship as the societal norm which is subverted later in the play.
Mercutio's attitudes to love provide comic relief but Shakespeare also uses him as a foil to the portrayal of Romeo of an archetypal Petrarchan lover. Mercutio, as a character, also rejects pretences and criticises those who he feels are not being true to themselves.
Shakespeare uses celestial imagery in different ways to highlight the difference between the two protagonists. Romeo compares Juliet to the sun and moon whilst Juliet wants a more grounded response.
Shakespeare explores the relationships between the lovers and the adults ‘responsible’ for their education. Friar’s proverb goes unheeded and Juliet wills her nurse to move and speak faster.
Influenced by the renaissance and a renewed interest in classical writers such as Ovid, Shakespeare establishes this play as a tragedy through the use of a prologue.
Elizabethan society, despite having a female monarch, was firmly patriarchal. Arranged marriages were the norm, especially for wealthy families. Marrying for love was almost unheard of.
Characteristic of many of Shakespeare’s plays, he portrays characters who challenge traditional gender roles, almost always with tragic consequences. Juliet takes on a more masculine tone than Romeo.
A strongly religious society, the Elizabethan audience would be shocked by the religious imagery used by Romeo and Juliet; it emphasises how their love challenges expectations and social norms.
Exploiting the deep suspicion of Catholic Priests and their perceived meddlesome behaviour, the Friar is hypocritical and the nurse represents the uneducated.
The use of the singular ‘life’ could be a classical allusion to Plato’s Symposium and Aristophanes’ definition of love completing people.
The ‘hopeful lady of my earth’ coupled with a later reference to Juliet as ‘for earth too dear’ creates an ominous sense she may be too precious for Earth.
Written in to the lovers’ courtship from the start is a significant role for their bodies.: references to eyes, cheeks, hands and kissing gives a physicality to their love.
Classical Greek thinking identified several forms of love. Here Shakespeare is exploring how they challenge Storge - love and duty to family.

Act 2 Scene 6 and Act 3 Scene 1, 2 +3 Act 3 Scene 5 Week 9+10- Authority and Friendship, Age and Fate
‘These violent delights have violent ends’ (2.6)‘Romeo, the hate I bear thee can afford/ No better term than this,--thou art a villain.’ (3.1)‘O calm, dishonourable, vile submission!/ Allastoccata carries it away./Tybalt, you rat-catcher, will you walk?’ (3.1)‘O, I am fortune's fool!’ (3.1)
‘Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds,/ Towards Phoebus' lodging: such a wagoner/As Phaethon would whip you to the west’ (3.2)‘Give me my Romeo; and, when he shall die,/ Take him and cut him out in little stars,/And he will make the face of heaven so fine/ That all the world will be in love with night’ (3.2)‘Blister'd be thy tongue/ For such a wish! he was not born to shame:Upon his brow shame is ashamed to sit;’ (3.2)‘Hold thy desperate hand:Art thou a man? thy form cries out thou art:Thy tears are womanish; ’ (3.3)
‘Me thinks I see thee, now thou art below,/As one dead in the bottom of a tomb:/Either my eyesight fails, or thou look'st pale.’ (3.5)‘O fortune, fortune! all men call thee fickle:’ (3.5)’I will drag thee on a
hurdle thither.Out, you green-sickness carrion!’ (3.5)‘An you be mine, I'll give you to my friend;And you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets,’ (3.5)
‘What ho! You men, you beasts’ (1.1)‘My blood for your rude brawls doth lie a-bleeding’ (3.1)‘Now thou art sociable: Now thou art Romeo’ (2.4)‘Be ruled by me forget to think of her’ (1.1)
‘My child is yet a stranger in the world;She hath not seen the change of fourteen years.’ (1.2)‘unbruised youth with unstuffed brain’‘Young men’s love the lies/Not truly in their hearts but in their eyes’ (2,3)‘my mind misgives / Some consequence yet hanging in the stars’ (1.4)‘If he be married, / My Grave is like to be my Wedding Bed’ (11.5)
The society of Verona is portrayed by Shakespeare as being out of balance: the Montagues and Capulets are allowing themselves to be ruled by their passions .Mercutio’s anger at, what
he perceives as, Romeo’s cowardice is arguably where the play begins to descend into tragedy.
With Romeo banished, Juliet has to contend with her father’s impatience to marry her to Paris; his angry outburst contrasts with her deepening sense of doom.
The authority of the Prince as head of state would be recognised; the rulers of the period would be able to sentence people to death for violence
Shakespeare creates a definitive distinction between the older characters and the younger characters. The young are impulsive and passionate.
Juliet’s language and behaviour is now in stark contrast to her submissive obedience at the beginning of the play: she impatiently wants Romeo.
Elizabethan London was rife with violent street brawls and rival families killing in the name of honour. This is reflected in the action on stage.
Whilst a modern audience would celebrate a young women challenging gender expectations, an Elizabethan audience would be shocked by her erotic language.
The Elizabethan patriarch would be expecting unquestioning obedience- his violence would be accepted by a contemporary audience.
Galen’s humours: An imbalance in the humours could lead people to behave in certain negative ways. This belief permeates the very structure of the play.
The Elizabethans, similar to attitudes today, believed the young were too often led by their emotions and passions and needed controlling.
Phaeton, despite being warned against it, tried to control his father’s fiery steeds. They overpowered him and scorched the earth. Zeus killed him.
Proto feminist: It could be argued that Shakespeare’s portrayal of Capulet’s violence is a social criticism of patriarchal violence.
Generic conventions of the Aristotelian Tragedy; Romeo is cursed by fate and has a hamartia which causes their inevitable downfall.
Does the tragic catharsis central to plot explain the longevity and timeless popularity?

'Marks of weakness, marks of woe.’ London'Mind forged manacles I hear’ London'There once was a country’ Emigree'It tastes of sunlight' 'They accuse me of being dark in their city' Emigree
'I see every round as it rips through his life /I see broad daylight on the other side.’ Remains'his bloody life in my bloody hands.' Remains'Belfast. Beirut. Phnom Penh. All flesh is grass.’ WP'running children in nightmare heat' WP

London is a description of the horrors plaguing the lower classes.
Remains is crafted like a conversational story from a ex‐soldier. He recounts an episode where he killed a looter in a war and then goes on to explain how it has effected him: he has been left with PTSD, unable to move on.
Emigree considers how power and conflict are irrevocably tied to location and identity.
Kamikaze tells the story of a pilot who didn’t complete his mission and the stigma he faced on his return.
Blake was a critic of organised religion and their treatment of the poor. He was a Romantic poet and thought civilisation corrupted mankind.
Poppies explores the effects of war on non‐combatants, in this case a mother of a ‘dead’ solider.
War photographer follows the life of a war photographer between jobs – his memories return as he develops the photos he has taken. The final stanza concerns the public’s reaction to these pictures.
Kamikaze pilots followed ideals called Bushido. To break these rules was to invite dishonour on yourself and your family. In Japanese culture, honour and shame play a significant role in people’s choices.
Structure: London has a rigid structure and rhyme scheme to mirror the repetitive nature or poverty.
Structure – Remains uses the shift from conversational tone to a recurring focus to show how the episode’s effects.Form: Both write in 1st person to vividly share
their experiences, esp. the senses.Structure – Poppies employs frequent enjambment and caesura to represent loss of emotional control.Form – Remains employs 1st person,
conversational tone; WP is 3rd person.A&B: 'mind forged manacles' was originally 'German forged links' – a criticism of George III’s links to Germany.
Form – Kamikaze is 3rd person ‐‐> distance; Poppies is 1st person.
A&B: Remains can be seen as an implicit criticism of the government’s treatment of PTSD in veterans.
A&B: What does Garland’s discussion of Japanese culture reveal about our own reactions to shame and honour?
Monotony (n) tedious repetitionThinly veiled criticism – a criticism of something that is not direct and obvious but easily understood and only partially hidden. Fervent – having or displaying a passionate intensity.
Patriotism (n) ‐ support for one's country.Self‐condemnation (n) ‐ the blaming of oneself for something
Combatant (n) – a person directly involved in combat.Deindividualization – where a person’s individual identity is removed.

• good source of omega 3 (found in oil-rich fish and some plant oil) fatty acids
• Salmon is one of the major sources
fatty acids are… - the building blocks of fats - important for a healthy heart, (lowering cholesterol levels and keeping our body healthy)
- Some fatty acids are made by the body some like Omega 3 fatty acids, cannot be made, and must be supplied by the diet
TypesAnimals – beef, pork, lambPoultry- chicken, geese, duckGame- venison, rabbitOffal – liver, heart, tongue
Nutritional Value
Protein – HBVFat (saturated)Minerals – Iron and CalciumVitamins – B6 and B12
Meat StructureMuscle held together by connective tissue.Muscles that work a lot need longer cooking, in a wet heat such as stewing or braising.Less tough cuts such as loin and rump have done less work and are more tender and need a quicker cooking time such as frying.They are also more expensive to buy.
Meat facts
Marinating and Tenderising Marinades are added to meat before cooking to tenderise and add flavour.
Acids are really effective marinades – lemon juice, tomatoes, vinegar, yoghurt
Mincing and beating also break down tough connective tissue and tenderise the meat
What happens to meat during cooking?
•Muscle protein shrinks and moisture is lost•The meat browns-MAILLARD REACTION •The connective tissue softens•The fat melts•Collagen breaks down into gelatine
- Kills bacteria and makes it safe to eat - Makes the meat tender and easier to eat- Improves flavour and appearance of the meat
Why do we cook Meat?
High Biological Value Proteinprotein. Foods containing all the essential amino acids are said to have a high biological value. Foods originating from animal sources (meat, poultry, fish, eggs and dairy products) are all HBV protein foods; soya is the only HBV food originating from a plant.
Complimentary Proteins (plant based HBV)different proteins tend to complement each other in their amino acid pattern, so when two foods providing vegetable protein are eaten at a meal, such as a cereal (e.g. bread) and pulses (e.g. baked beans), the amino acids of one protein may compensate for the limitations of the other, resulting in a combination of higher biological value. Examples: Hummous & breadsticks, Dhal & Naan bread.
Low biological value (LBV) proteinFoods that are deficient in one or more of the essential amino acids are said to have a low biological value (LBV). Foods originating from plants (cereals, nuts, seeds, lentils, beans, pulses) are LBV protein foods.
ShelfishShellfish is a term for aquatic invertebrates used as food, including species of molluscs, crustaceans, and echinoderms. Most kinds of shellfish are harvested from saltwater environments, some are found in freshwater.

WEEK 1 WEEK 2 WEEK 3 WEEK 4 WEEK 5
Development is an improvement in living standards through better use of resources. Economic: This is progress in economic growth through levels of industrialisation and use of technology.Social: This is an improvement in people’s standard of living, for example, clean water and electricity.Environmental: This involves advances in the management and protection of the environment.
Measuring developmentEmployment type: The proportion of the population working in primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary industries. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita: The total value of goods and services produced by a country in a year divided by its population.Literacy rate: The percentage of the population over the age of 15 who can read and write.Human Development Index (HDI): A number that uses life expectancy, education level and income per person.
LICs: Poorest countries in the world. GNI per capita is low and most citizens have a low standard of livingNEEs: Countries are getting richer as their economy is progressing from the primary industry to the secondary industry. Greater exports leads to better wages.HICs: These countries are wealthy with a high GNI per capita and high standards of living. These countries spend money on services.
Stage 1: High birth and death rates, low population growthStage 2: Birth rate remains high, death rate falls, population rising.Stage 3: Low death rate, falling birth rate, increasing population.Stage 4: Low birth and death rate, population steadies.Stage 5: Falling death rate and low birth rate leading to natural decrease of the population.
Human factors affecting uneven developmentAid: Helps countries develop key projects for infrastructure faster. Improve services such as schools and hospitals. Too much reliance on aid hinders development though.Trade: Countries that export more than the import have a trade surplus. Trading goods and services is more profitable than raw materials. Education: Creates a skilled workforce, meaning people earn more money and can pay more taxes which helps to develop the country. Politics: Corruption in local and national governments. Stability of the government can affect their ability to trade and to invest in services and infrastructure. History: Colonialism has helped Europe develop but slowed the development of other countries. Countries which have already industrialised benefit economically today. Health: Lack of clean water and poor healthcare means a large number of people suffer diseases. People who are ill cannot work so make little contribution to the economy.
Physical factors affecting uneven developmentNatural resources: Fuel sources such as oil. Minerals and metals. Availability of timber. Access to safe water.
Natural hazards: Frequent hazards undermines development. Benefits from volcanic material and floodwater.
Climate: Reliability of rainfall to benefit farming. Extreme climates limit industry and affects health. Climate can attract tourists.
Location/terrain: Landlocked countries may find trade difficult. Mountainous terrain makes farming more challenging.
Consequences of uneven developmentWealth: People in HICs have higher incomes than those in LICs/NEEsHealth: Better healthcare means that people in HICs live longer.Migration: If nearby countries have higher levels of development or are secure, people will move to seek better opportunities and standard of living.
Reducing the development gapMicrofinance loans: Involves people in LICs receiving small loans from traditional banks. Loans enable them to start their own businesses. Might not be effective at a large scale.
Aid: Given from one country to another as money or resources. Improve literacy rates, building dams, improving agriculture. Can be wasted by corrupt governments.
Fair trade: Movement where farmers get paid a fair price for the goods produced. Paid fairly so they can improve healthcare and schools. In reality, only a small proportion of extra money reaches the producers.
Foreign-direct investment: when one country buys property or infrastructure in another country. Leads to better access to finance, technology and expertise. Investment can come with ties that countries need to meet.
Debt relief: When a county’s debt is cancelled or interest rates are lowered. Means more money can be spent on development. Locals might not always get a say. There might be ties from the donor country.
Technology: Includes tools, machines and affordable equipment. Renewable energy is less expensive and polluting. Requires investment in skills to operate machinery.

YEAR 10 Health and Social Care Knowledge Organiser: Component 3 Health and Wellbeing Learning Aim B: Understanding and interpreting Health indicators
How do we know how our lifestyle affects us? What tests can we take to assess health? How do we interpret test results to help improve health and wellbeing?
B2 Lifestyle Indicators
WEEK 1: Smoking
1. Smoking harms the bodies organs, causes diseases, and reduces health
2. Approximately half of all life-long smokers die prematurely, losing on average around 10 years of life.
3. Health risks – Cancer/ Stroke/ Coronary heart disease/ increased blood pressure/ blood clots
4. Two-thirds of smokers say they want to quit, however trying to do so unaided is the least effective method.
5. Smokers who get the right support are 3 times as likely to quit successfully.
WEEK 2: Alcohol consumption 1. UK Chief Medical Officers (CMOs) advise
not to drink more than 14 units of alcohol per week
2. Having one or two heavy drinking episodes a week, increases your risk of long-term illness and injury.
3. Risks whilst drunk – Accidents causing injury/ Misjudging risky situations/ Losing self-control
4. Health risks – Cancer (Mouth, throat and breast)/ alcoholism/ liver damage/ psychiatric disorders
WEEK 3: Lifestyle- Activity levels 1. Sedentary lifestyle – involves little or no physical
activity 2. Inactive lifestyle- Adults that do no forms of
physical activity at all 3. Government guidelines recommend at least 150
minutes of moderate intensity activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity a week
4. Benefits of regular exercise- - 20-30% reduction of premature death/ 50%
reduced risk of chronic diseases (Heart disease, stroke, diabetes, cancers)
- Physical activity releases chemicals in the brain which boost self-esteem, aids concentration, sleep and improves the way you look and feel
Learning Aim C: Person-centred health and wellbeing improvement plans C1 Health and wellbeing improvement plans C2 Obstacles to implementing plans WEEK 4: Target setting- SMART Targets 1. If a target is not SMART, it can give the
individual an opportunity to not start the plan. - Specific-Target should be clearly stated and
say exactly what you mean - Measurable- A specific amount must be
stated to prove you have met the target - Achievable - It must be possible to achieve
the target you have set - Realistic- You should be physically able to do
the target. - Time Related -Target must have a deadline,
so you know when to achieve it by 2. Short-term target- less than 6 months 3. Long-term target- over 6 months
WEEK 5: Health & wellbeing improvement plans 1. Information to include- Statement of the problem/ Overall goal/ Short & long-term targets/ Recommended actions to improve health/ Types of support to be used/ Obstacles/ barriers the individual could face Obstacles- anything that makes it difficult for you to do something;
- Emotional/ psychological - Time constraints - Availability of resources - Unachievable targets - Lack of support
WEEK 6: Support implementing plans-types of support 1. Informal support- Provided by family and friends who are not paid to help 2. Formal support- Provided by trained professionals such are Doctors and therapists. 3. Voluntary support - Voluntary organisations often run events which could help to improve aspects of health and wellbeing like inactivity and diet. For example, Cancer Research UK runs the 'race for life' events across the UK 4. Self-help groups- are run by community organisations for example weight-loss groups where people can discuss nutrition, exercise and take part in exercise sessions.

Medicine through time Knowledge organiser –18th- 19th Century
Week 1 Specific Content Week 2 + 3 Key examples
Ideas about the cause of disease and illness
Continuity and change in explanations of the cause of disease and illness. The influence in Britain of Pasteur’s Germ Theory and Koch’s work on microbes.
Approaches to prevention and treatment
The extent of change in care and treatment: improvements in hospital care and the influence of Nightingale. The impact of anaesthetics and antiseptics on surgery. New approaches to prevention: the development and use of vaccinations and the Public Health Act 1875
Case studies
1. Key individual: Jenner and the development of vaccination2. Fighting Cholera in London, 1854; attempts to prevent its spread; the significance of Snow and the Broad Street pump
Week 5 Key people
Public Health Act
Previous laissez-faire attitude, then 1848 Public Health Act made action on clean water and sewage voluntary. 1875 Public Health Act made it compulsory for towns to take action. Change mostly because of (1) Snow (2) working men getting the vote in 1867 (3) Great Stink 1858.
Causes Miasma until 1861, and afterwards – people slow to change. Spontaneous generation was a popular theory – rotting matter created microbes, which caused the miasmata.
Pasteur+ Koch’s influence
Pasteur – Britain slow to listen, followed Bastian’s spontaneous generation ideas. Lister did follow Pasteur. John Tyndall, a physicist, similarly linked dirt and disease, but people found ideas hard to accept. Koch made it easier for other doctors to study microbes+inspired them to
Treatment Not much change – still miasma belief so (eg) cholera still dealt with by burning tar, burning dead people’s clothes. Inoculation used for smallpox but dangerous. 2nd half od 19th century – patent medicines (‘cure-alls’)sold millions but had dangerous ingredients.
Hospitals 1859 – first cottage hospital (small hospital provided nursing care, with medical treatment from local GP) – 300 by 1900. Also voluntary hospitals in London. Most rich treated at home. Those who couldn’t support themselves treated in workhouses 1867 new infirmaries instead of this, paid for by rate-payers. Antiseptics used
Anaesthetics and antiseptics
Anaesthetics stopped pain (previously just opium or alcohol). Laughing gas from 1795 didn’t knock patient out. Ether from 1846 was flammable+caused vomiting. Opposition from Christians and because of Hannah Greener. Black Period – more deaths. Then antiseptic and aseptic surgery, though doctors didn’t like carbolic acid or Lister
Week 4 Case studiesJenner and vaccination
See above. Smallpox very serious – 11 epidemics in London in 18th century. Inoculation = deliberately giving someone the disease, to protect them later. Jenner published in 1798 and government then funded vaccine. Hostility because strange idea, and Jenner couldn’t explain how it worked. 1852 smallpox vaccination compulsory, enforced from 1872.
Fighting Cholera in London, 1854
First came to Britain 1831 – epidemics every decade to 1860s. Killed people in a week. Tar barrels burnt, but it didn’t help. In 1848-9 epidemic Snow suggested cholera was being transmitted by dirty water (not miasmata). He proved this in 1854 epidemic – mapped deaths in Soho and linked them to contaminated Broad Street pump
Florence Nightingale Nursed in the Crimean War in the 1850s, cut death rates from 42% to 2%. Then wrote 200 books about hospitals, including Notes on Nursing and Notes on Hospitals, and set up a training school for nurses in the 1860s at St Thomas’. [still believed in miasma] Made nursing respectable
Edward Jenner 1796 – used cowpox germs to protect against smallpox – the first vaccination. Tested it on 23 people. Lots of opposition, including from Christians and from people who had done inoculation.
Louis Pasteur Published germ theory in 1861 – germs cause disease. Then 1879 chicken cholera vaccine discovered by chance (injected old germs) – first vaccine since Jenner. Developed more, as did Koch
Robert Koch 1875 – found the germ that caused anthrax – which proved germ theory was true and meant vaccines could be developed. Also stained microbes.
Simpson+Lister Key developers of chloroform (1847), the first successful anaesthetic and carbolic acid (1865), the first antisepticJoseph Bazalgette Responsible for ambitious London sewers, created after Great Stink in 1858, finished 1875John Snow 1854 – proved that cholera was spread through water

Week 6 - Specific Content
Week 8+9 Key examples
Ideas about the cause of disease and illness
Advances in understanding the causes of illness and disease: the influence of genetic and lifestyle factors on health. Improvements in diagnosis: the impact of the availability of blood tests, scans and monitors
Approaches to prevention and treatment
The extent of change in care and treatment. The impact of the NHS and science and technology: improved access to care; advances in medicines, including magic bullets and antibiotics; high-tech medical and surgical treatment in hospitals.New approaches to prevention: mass vaccinations and government lifestyle campaigns
Case studies
1. Fleming, Florey and Chain’s development of penicillin2. The fight against lung cancer in the 21st
century: the use of science and technology in diagnosis and treatment; government action
Causes -genetic
Genetic understanding improved by 1900 through Mendel (genes come in pairs, one from each parent). Then 1953 Crick and Watson identified the structure of DNA, using photography from Franklin. Led to Human Genome Project, finished 2000 – identified complete set on DNA. From that, can identify genes that cause diseases – eg BRCA1 for some breast cancer (Angelina Jolie)
Causes -lifestyle
Smoking – popular from 1920s – biggest cause of preventable disease in world. Diet – too much sugar (leads to diabetes) and fat (heart disease). Also alcohol, tanning and STIs.
Treatment Huge changes: 1. Magic bullets – specific cure for specific disease, first one 1909 Salvarsan 606 (Paul Ehrlich) for syphilis. 2. Penicillin – first antibiotic, could cure more than one infection. Lots of technology for treatment now (chemotherapy for cancer, kidney dialysis machines to do the work of kidneys if they fail). Better sci+tech includes mass production of pills, insulin pumps and hypodermic needles (which measure precise doses).
Improvements in diagnosis
X-rays from 1890s – can see inside human body without cutting into it. Later (1940s) ultrasound and then (1970s) CT and MRI scans – MRI can see tissue. Blood tests from the 1930s onwards and ECGs from 1900s onwards. Blood pressure monitors from 1880s onwards. Endoscopes from 1900 (camera to see inside body)
Week 10 -Treatment in hospitals and influence of NHS
1. Previously – some help through 1911 National Insurance Act, but only for workers, not for wives/families2. NHS launched 1948 – government now responsible for GPs and for about 3000 hospitals. 3. High-tech surgery now includes transplants (eg hearts from 1967), microsurgery (reattaching tiny blood vessels), keyhole surgery (tiny incisions). More and better prosthetic limbs – for increased soldiers surviving attacks in Iraq and Afghanistan4. Prevention has improved – mass vaccination for babies and young people (eg polio developed 1954, HPV 2008), Clean Air Acts in 1960s. Lifestyle campaigns against binge drinking or unprotected sex, and for healthy eating eg 5 a day
Week 7 - Case studiesFleming, Florey andChain
1928 – Fleming noticed unexpected mould growing in his experiment – penicillin, the first antibiotic. He published but didn’t get funding. 1939 – Florey and Chain researched, produced penicillin but couldn’t make enough – 1941 US govt agreed funding when they entered WW2. Later (after Hodgkin identified its chemical structure in 1945) synthetic versions could be produced, although some bacteria also became resistant to it.
Fight against lung cancer
Very little lung cancer in 19th century. 85% cases are smokers. Diagnosis issues – no national screening programme as diagnosis is tricky – X-rays not detailed enough – but CT scans, followed by PET-CT, or bronchoscopy, are better. Treatment – transplants, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, genetic research (some chemo drugs work better in patients with certain genes). Prevention – tobacco advertising banned on TV in 1965 and completely in 2005. 2007 – no smoking in public places and have to be 18 to buy tobacco. Adverts, tax on cigarettes, also (2015) illegal to smoke in a car with someone under 18

Theme 4– Sex and Relationships
Week 1 Assertive: Being confident in stating your opinions or feelings whilst still
considering those of others. Equality: In a relationship, equality is where both people in a relation-ship (romantic or non-romantic) have the same amount of influence on one another. In an unhealthy relationship, there will not be equality as one person will have power over the other.
2 Attachment: Feeling connected to someone. Attachment is an im-portant factor in long-term relationships (romantic and otherwise) Attraction: Feeling drawn towards someone, often romantically.
3 Intimacy: Closeness with someone. People often assume that intimacy is about sex, but in reality there are many different forms of intimacy and not all are sexual or romantic. Lust: Sexual desire.
4 Contraception: Protection against pregnancy. Contraception can come in many forms, some of which protect against STIs STIs: Sexually Transmitted Infection:: There are many types of STI. Not all STIs have obvious symptoms.
5 Grief: A feeling of loss. This can be experienced when a relationship ends. Red Flags: Signs that a relationship (romantic or non-romantic) may have become unhealthy. These include intensity, isolation, extreme jealousy, belittling or volatility.
Theme 3—Buddhism
Week 1 Dharma: The teachings of the Buddha: When the Buddha died he did
not name a successor. Instead, he told his followers to look at the the Dharma for advice. Dukkha: The best translation for this work in English is ‘suffering’ or ‘lack of satisfaction’.
2 Anatta: The teaching that we do not have a ‘self’ or ‘soul’ that is immor-tal and can be separated from out body. Anicca: The teaching that all things are impermanent.
3 Samsara: The cycle of birth, death and rebirth. The ultimate goal in Bud-dhism is to free oneself from this cycle. Karma: A natural law where all actions have a reaction or consequences.
4 Meditation: A central Buddhist practice, meditation the focusing one's mind for a period of time, in silence or with the aid of chanting. Puja: Puja is the name for ceremonies that involve offerings, or gifts. During these ceremonies, there will also be meditation and contempla-tion.
5 Vihara: A Buddhist place of worship (sometimes called a temple) or a Buddhist monastery Sangha: The community of Buddhist monks and nuns.

IS1Arpeggio
–has the notes of a chord played in succession rather than together, strictly in continuously ascending or descending order.
The term ‘broken chord’ is som
etimes used as a synonym
,Cadence-The chords that conclude a m
usical phrase. Cadences are of four m
ain types: perfect, with chords V‒I; im
perfect, with I (or other nondom
inantchord) and V; plagal, with chords IV‒I; interrupted,
usually with V‒VI,Bass (line) -The low
est part in the musical texture, w
hich often determines or generates the harm
ony. A Baroque ‘figured bass’ has num
erals underneath to indicate the chords to be ‘realised’ by the continuo keyboard player. A ‘murky’ bass has a
pattern of broken octaves (as in parts of Beethoven’s Pathétiquesonata),Chord
-The simultaneous sounding together of tw
o or m
ore notes. Often used to refer to the triads in major and m
inor keys.
IS2Conjunct/Stepw
ise-W
here a melody m
oves by steps (by tones and/or semitones) and not by leaps (of a 3rd or m
ore),Disjunct-Opposite of conjunct (or its synonym
‘stepwise’), Dissonance
-In traditional harmony a dissonance is a note that does not belong to
a comm
on chord or triad,Chord sequence -A series of chords, usually repeated (e.g. in a 12-bar blues).
IS3Fanfare
-A flourish for brass instruments (frequently w
ith percussion) for ceremonial or celebratory effect, or sim
ply any short passage for brass in an orchestral w
ork,Ground bass -A repeating phrase in the bass (a type of ‘ostinato’), especially in some
Baroque pieces, notably by Purcell,Interval-The distance between tw
o neighbouring notes or two heard sim
ultaneously,Leap-A
melodic m
ovement to a note further than a tone or sem
itone away from
the previous note. Opposite of ‘step’.
IS4M
elody-A m
elody (or ‘melodic line’) is a succession of single sounds –
most frequently an individual strand or part w
ithin a fuller m
usical texture. A melody is usually ‘tuneful’ or otherw
ise prominent or m
emorable,M
elodic device -A compositional m
ethod applying to a single m
elodic line rather than to the complete texture (for exam
ple melodic sequence),M
onotone-Use of the sam
e pitch repeatedly in a m
elodic part,Ornamentation
-The process of elaborating or decorating musical m
aterial (particularly a m
elody). Includes conventional ornaments such as trills and turns.
IS5Ostinato
-A short musical pattern repeated throughout a section or com
plete piece, Pedal-A note (usually in the bass, and generally either the tonic or dom
inant of the key) which is sustained or repeated w
hile chords change, often resulting in dissonance,Riff-Sim
ilar to ostinato, but applied to popular styles of music,Rom
an numerals -Rom
an numerals (from
I to VII) are used to label chords in traditional harm
ony according to which degree of the scale is used as the root. Thus in C m
ajor, the chord D F A (with
root D) is II.
IS6Scale
-A succession of pitches in stepwise order usually extending for an octave (e.g. C D E F G A B C is a (m
ajor) scale),Sequence-
Repetition of a melody (or an harm
onic progression) but at different pitch level(s) rather than at the same pitch,Them
e-A m
elody (or occasionally som
e other form of m
usical material) on w
hich part or all of a piece is based,Tonality-The relationship of notes
within a scale or m

Statistics – Year 10Week 1
Measures of location are single values which describe a position data. Of
these, measures of central tendency are to do with the centre of the
data, i.e. a notion of ‘average’. Measures of spread are to do with how
data is spread out.
Averages 2 – Week 4
When comparing two sets of data, two factors should you always include:ALWAYS include an average (mean, median, mode) and a measure of spread or variation (range or IQR)
Mean Advantages - Includes every item of dataDisadvantages - Can be skewed by extreme values (outliers)
Median Advantages - Not affected by extreme valuesDisadvantages - It doesn’t take into account the value of each piece of data
Mode Advantages - Is the only average that can be used for qualitative data. E.g. favourite colourDisadvantages – There can be more than one mode. It doesn’t always represent the data
InterquartileRange(IQR)
Unlike the range the IQR is less likely to be affected by extreme valuesIt represents the middle 50% of the data.

Standard deviation is a measure of how much all the values deviate from the mean value, or how spread out they are.
Standarddeviation (SD)
𝑄𝑛𝑛Σ 𝑥𝑥 − ҧ𝑥𝑥 2

Explanatory(independent) variable
If you want to investigate how changing one variable affects another variable. The variable you change is the explanatory variable. This is the variable being investigated in the experiment.
On a scatter graph, this is labelled on the 𝒙𝒙-axis.
Response(dependent) variable
The other variable is called the response variable because it ‘responds to’ or ‘depends on’ the explanatory variable.
On a scatter graph, this is labelled on the 𝒚𝒚-axis.

Correlation and Causation – Week 8
Correlation Is a relationship between two variables, showing an increasing or decreasing trend. As one variable increases, the other decreases or increases.
E.g. As a students age increases, in general the height will increase. This would show a trend of positive correlation.
Types of correlation
• Positive correlation is when one variable increases as the other increases.
• Negative correlation is when one variable decreases as the other increases.
• When the points lie on or near a straight line, the correlation is linear.
Causation When a change in one variable directly causes a change in another variable, there is a casual relationship between them. This is not the same as correlation.
E.g. The amount of fuel a car uses depends on the size of its engine, since bigger engines use more fuel. The size of the engine causes the car to use more fuel. There is a casual relationship between them both.
Interpolation Using a line of best fit to estimate data values from within the range of data is called interpolation.
Extrapolation Using a line of best fit to estimate data values from within the range of data is called interpolation.
Line of Best Fit – Week 9/10
A line of best fit is a straight line drawn so that the plotted points on a scatter diagram are evenly scattered either side of the line, passing through as many points as possible. By drawing a line of best fit, it helps make estimations from the trend of data.
The line of best fit can becreated by:
1. The line of best fitcan be drawn by eye
Equation of line of best fit
The equation of the line 𝒚𝒚 = 𝒂𝒂𝒂𝒂 + 𝒃𝒃With gradient 𝒂𝒂, and its intercept on the y-axis is (0, 𝒃𝒃).
The gradient, 𝒂𝒂, of the line of best fit is the rate of increase of the response variable in relation to the explanatory variable.The 𝒚𝒚-intercept b is the value of the response variable when the explanatory variable is 0.
2. To get a better fit, draw yourline through the mean point ഥ𝒂𝒂, ഥ𝒚𝒚 .
This is done by calculating the mean of both variables (e.g. shoe size and height). Creating a co-ordinate from these values
The gradient can be found by:

6. Breathing mechanisms
When you inhale:•the intercostal muscles contract, expanding the ribcage•the diaphragm contracts, pulling downwards to increase the volume of the chest•pressure inside the chest is lowered and air is sucked into the lungs
When you exhale:•the intercostal muscles relax, the ribcage drops inwards and downwards•the diaphragm relaxes, moving back upwards, decreasing the volume of the chest•pressure inside the chest increases and air is forced out
3. Passage of air
•Air enters the body through the nasal cavity and mouth•Then it travels down the trachea (wind pipe)•The trachea splits into 2 tubes, 1 to each lung, these are called bronchi•Each bronchus further divides into smaller tubules called bronchiole•Each bronchiole ends in a tiny air sac called an alveolus•Gaseous Exchange occurs at the alveoli
7. Gaseous exchange
The alveoli have very thin walls and a large surface area – this aids gaseous exchange. When we breathe in, our alveoli fill with oxygen. Each alveolus is surrounded by capillaries carrying deoxygenated blood. This blood is low in oxygen and high in Carbon Dioxide. Oxygen travels from the alveoli into the blood. Carbon Dioxide travels from the blood into the alveolus to be exhaled
5. Key terms
Respiration is the exchange of gasesExternal Respiration is the exchange of gases between the alveoli and the blood (O2 from alveoli into blood and CO2 from blood into alveoli)Internal Respiration is the exchange of gases between the blood and tissue cells (O2 from blood to tissues and CO2 from tissues to blood). Inspiration – breathing air inExpiration – breathing air out. Diffusion is the movement of substances from a high concentration to a low concentration

Vessel Type
Structure Function
Artery Thick, muscular elastic walls, small lumen, high pressure
Take blood away from the heart
Vein Thin, little muscle in walls, non-elastic, large lumen, pocket valves, low pressure
Bring blood into the heart
Capillary Very thin walls (1 cell), very small lumen
Form networks around muscle and tissue and allow gaseous exchange
The vena cava brings deoxygenated blood from the body to the right atrium
At the same time, the pulmonary vein brings oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium
When the atria are full of blood, they contract – squeezing blood into the ventricles
The bicuspid and tricuspid valves slam shut to prevent back flow
The ventricles are now full of blood and contract – squeezing blood out of the heart
The Aorta takes oxygenated blood from the left ventricle around the body
The pulmonary artery takes deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs
The 2 semi lunar valves shut to prevent back flow
The cycle begins again.
Component of Blood Function
Red Blood Cells Transport oxygen around the body
White Blood Cells Fight disease [protection]
Platelets Clot the blood [protection]
Plasma Fluid part of the blood, mostly water, transports cells, nutrients, gases and wastes
2. Cardiovascular system has 3 parts – the heart,blood and blood vessels. The heart itself is adouble muscular pump, this means it pumps bloodto the lungs (pulmonary circulation) and it pumpsit to the body (systemic circulation). Its functiontherefore is to deliver deoxygenated blood to thelungs to get rid of CO2 and to collect O2.
The bloods function is protection (white bloodcells and platelets), delivery of oxygen andnutrients and removal of carbon dioxide and waste
The blood vessels function is to form a networkaround the body so blood can be delivered towhere it is needed. Blood vessels are also involvedwith temperature regulation and gaseousexchange.
Measurement DescriptionHeart Rate Number of times heart beats per minute
Stroke Volume Amount of blood leaving the heart per beatCardiac Output Amount of blood leaving the heart per
minute (stroke volume x heart rate)Maximum heart rate Calculated as 220-age
High blood pressure Blood pressure above 120/80
Low blood pressure Blood pressure below 90/60
Systolic pressure The blood pressure in the arteries during the contraction of your heart
Diastolic pressure The blood pressure in the arteries when the heart rests between beats

1. Energy Systems
Aerobic energy system – uses/is dependent on oxygen; used for long duration, low-intensity activities (Glucose + oxygen ---> energy + carbon dioxide + water).Anaerobic energy system – not dependent on oxygen used for short duration; used for high intensity activities (Glucose ---> energy + lactic acid). Lactic acid – fatiguing waste product of the anaerobic energy system.

2. Health and Fitness
Health is a complete state of physical, mental and social well being, not simply an absence of disease
Fitness is the ability to meet the demands of your everyday lifestyle
There is a close relationship between the two, people who take part in exercise tend to maintain their physical, mental and social wellbeing. People who are healthy tend to enjoy taking part in physical activity.
3. Health related components of fitness Cardiovascular endurance – the ability for your whole body to work for a prolonged period without fatigueMuscular Endurance – the ability for a muscle/muscle group to work repeatedly for a prolonged period without fatigueMuscular Strength – the ability for a muscle to overcome a resistanceFlexibility – the range of movement at a jointBody Composition – the % of your body that is made of fat, muscle and bone
4. Skill related components of fitness Agility – the ability to change direction quicklyBalance – the ability to maintain your equilibrium over a base of supportCo-ordination – the ability to use 2 or more body parts together efficientlySpeed – the ability to move the body or body parts quicklyPower – the ability to overcome a resistance with speed (strength x speed)Reaction Time – the time taken to respond to a stimulus
7. Principles of Training - SPORTSPECIFICITY – training must reflect the needs of the individual, their position and their sportPROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD – in order for fitness gains to continue, training must gradually get more difficultREVERSIBILITY – if you stop training due to illness or injury, fitness will be lost (detraining)TEDIUM AVOIDANCE – training must have variety to avoid boredom and injury
8. Principles of FITTFREQUENCY – progressive overload could be added by training more oftenINTENSITY – progressive overload could be added by training harderTIME – progressive overload could be added by training longer/resting lessTYPE – the correct method of training should be selected

hhaatt qquuaalliiffiiccaattiioonn sshhoouulldd II cchhoooossee?? Since 2015, in England, young people m
ust be in some form
of ‘education or training’ until they are 18. The government decided
to do this because it is widely recognised that staying in training im
proves your career prospects. Early in Year 11, you will need
to decide what you w
ant to do after your GCSEs.
Full-Tim
e Study – an academic or vocational qualification taken at a sixth form
, college or training provider.
An Apprenticeship – working for an em
ployer while studying for a qualification as part of your training.
Traineeships – this is an option for students w
ho would like to do an apprenticeship but w
ho do not yet have the experience, skills or qualifications to do so. A traineeship can prepare you for an apprenticeship.
Part-Tim
e Study – you may w
ork or volunteer full-time if you are also studying part-tim
e for a qualification.
Maths and English resits? If you get Grade 3 (or below
) in your GCSE Maths or English, you w
ill re-sit these qualifications as part of any course you study at college or as part of an apprenticeship. If you achieve low
er than a Grade 3, you might be
offered an alternative qualification called “Functional Skills Maths and English”.
T Levels are a new technical qualification, directly related to the w
orld of work. You pick one subject, and the
course is 80% study and 20%
(or 45 days) of relevant work experience.
Like A Levels, T Levels take 2 years to complete. They are assessed by a m
ixture of exams and coursew
ork, and students w
ill be graded “Distinction”, “Merit”, “Pass” or fail. A Distinction is equivalent to three A* at A Level.
Providers: Exeter College currently offers three T Levels: Construction, Digital, and Education & Childcare. It is
important to check the course guide (available in the school library) or their w
ebsite for up to date information.
Entry Requirements: See Exeter College w
ebsite
TECHNICAL (T) LEVELS
Vocational qualifications are work-related qualifications that blend classroom
learning with practical elem
ents, often including w
ork experience. There are literally hundreds of different qualifications at different levels, ranging from
Entry Level up to Level 3 (including NVQ
s and BTECs), your options are only limited by w
hat is offered locally. It is w
orth noting that T Levels will replace som
e Level 3 qualifications.

The IB Diploma is an academ
ic qualification, where you study three subjects to a higher level and three at a standard level.
There are also core courses that you must study. It allow
s you greater breadth than A Levels, although the trade-off is less depth.
Providers: Exeter College, Bridgwater &
Taunton College
Entry Requirements: See w
ebsite for specifics, but at least 6 GCSEs (inc. Maths and English) at Grade 6+.
THE INTERN
ATION
AL BACCALAUREATE (IB)
A Levels are academic qualifications, w
here you study a subject in depth. Most students chose three subjects,
which are assessed by exam
s at the end of two years. There are m
any different subjects to choose from, so you
need to see what courses are offered at your chosen provider.
When choosing A Levels, think about the com
bination of subjects – do they work w
ell together? Some
University courses require specific A Levels – so do your research w
hen choosing.

Apprenticeships combine practical training in a job w
ith studying for a related qualification. The employer
decides the qualification and chooses a training provider, which could be a local or national college or an
industry-specific training provider. Apprenticeships are governed by “Standards”. The standards set out the skills, know
ledge and behaviours that apprentices must achieve during the apprenticeship.
At Post 16, you will probably be looking at Interm
ediate Level apprenticeships.
Traineeships are for students that do not have the relevant qualifications, experience or skills to start an apprenticeship but are interested in progressing on to one in the future. They involve a program
me of up
to six months of study, including a w
ork placement, qualifications in M
aths and English and support with
finding a job or apprenticeship once the course is completed. Traineeships are unpaid.
https://ww
w.gov.uk/find-traineeship
In addition to Exeter College and Bicton College, there are local specialist training providers, who w
ork with
employers to deliver apprenticeships. If you are looking for an apprenticeship, it can help to talk to one of
these providers as well as the colleges:
PGL Training offer a wide range of courses; from
Hairdressing to Bricklaying, to W
arehousing and Business Administration. Pick up a prospectus from
the Careers Library or see w
ww
.pgltraining.com.
Many em
ployers will not use local training providers for Apprenticeships. Som
e, such as Hays Travel, have an in-house schem
e that they run themselves. O
thers, such as some accountancy firm
s, will also use
national bodies such as Kaplan.
