Assessment moderation workshop for GCSE Citizenship Studies
Join ACT Ambassadors and experienced teachers to moderate assessments and feel confident in your marking.
About this event
It can often be difficult when you have no other people in your department to moderate with.
Mastering the assessment process is crucial for effectively guiding students through their GCSE Citizenship Studies. This can be especially challenging for teachers in small or one-person departments. To bolster your confidence in applying markschemes, we invite you to join our collaborative event. Alongside ACT ambassadors and ACT’s Head of Education and Professional Development, you’ll actively apply markschemes to real student work.
Participants should be ready to share anonymised examples of answers they would like to be reviewed along with the relevant marks scheme. Please note, this session is seen as a support activity and does not replace any training provided by a particular examination board for their specification.
Who is it for?
Any teacher who would like to practise using marks schemes and apply them to students’ work.
Why attend?
By attending this event participants will
- Increase their confidence with using marks schemes
- Network with other colleagues in a similar situation to them
- Have a chance to ask questions of experienced teachers who have marked GCSE papers previously
Additional information
To gain the most from this session it is beneficial to bring some sample papers with you.
