What I’ll do differently next year

Most of my non-teaching friends think I spend eight weeks of summer lazing under the French sun. While a little French sun may be involved, I certainly won’t be lazing – I’ll be looking in detail at how to improve my schemes of work for the next academic year.

Of course there will be a great deal of change next year with the new A-level specification coming in, so I’ve already spent much of the year looking at what content I’ll be changing, keeping and adapting, and the content I’ll just need to start from scratch.

Flipping labs and plugging gaps are on Peter Banks' mind as the summer holidays edge closer.
