2 anonymised comments from teachers who have attended training programmes on the new option and feedback as to their experience:
“This course made me feel enormously positive about how enriching African History can be to any curriculum, so it has merit way beyond the solid base it provides for teaching the new A Level course. Rather than feeling daunted, I went away feeling excited, prepared and informed.”
“I overall enjoyed the experience and I recommend it to teachers who are interested in teaching the new history modules OCR have developed. Despite varying levels of knowledge and experience, It was a very organic learning environment where all present learned from each other. We covered all facets of teaching from coursework and examining structure to pedagogy and pleasantly surprised with the amount of resources, techniques provided to develop your scheme of work to return to class in September.”
