Rationale for Knowledge Organiser trial in Year 9 Summer Term 2017
• Marked increase across subjects in the amount of content pupils need to cover and retain in memory. For example English Literature increase of 35%.
• Develop a whole school Year 7-13 approach to imbedding revision and retention of knowledge . Imbedding this early to avoid the post-Easter cram of Year 11 and 13.
• Make homework more purposeful for the pupils needs and matching the requirements for ‘final assessment only’ GCSEs.Managing the loss of Controlled assessment.
• Helping parents by making it clear what their son needs to know. Learn the Knowledge Organisers.
