GCSE PE October update
In this update I will provide some feedback on the summer exam series and how to prepare for future series. I caught up with the senior examiners to gather some feedback from the summer series. You can see thebits size videos for the different components and some hints and tips when preparing for the exam series.
There are also some upcoming training events for GCSE PE
GCSE PE: Mocks marking training
This event is for teachers delivering the revised Pearson Edexcel GCSE (9–1) Physical Education for assessment in 2024.
During the event delegates will:
- understand the assessment requirements of the revised specification
- explore the paper structure and question types
- review student responses to questions and understand how to accurately apply the mark scheme
- understand how we can support you
- be able to ask questions and share good practice. Places are limited - so book your place now!
Date: 30 October 16-00 - 18.00
GCSE PE: Coursework marking training Component 4 – Module 4: Live Q&A session
This training is for centres who, after completing Modules 1–3, still require further support. It is broken down into two parts.
The first part is a group exercise where you will mark a new exemplar not seen in Modules 1–3. The second part is a live Q&A session where you have an opportunity to speak to an experienced examining team member who will be able to answer questions you may have. To get the most out of this session, it is essential to complete Modules 1–3 in advance.
Places are limited - so book your place now!
I am more than happy to discuss any queries you have. You can book an appointment at a time and date convenient to you. Alternatively, you can email me at teachingpeandsport@pearson.com if you have any questions.
