Year 12 Psychology Summer Induction Work Year 12 Psychology Summer Induction work Welcome to psychology! I am sorry that we can’t meet before you become a Year 12 student, but I hope this document will prepare and inspire you for the A-Level Psychology course! Below are some articles, videos, podcasts and tasks that you could complete to help you prepare for the types of topics and activities that you will study with us. There is quite a bit to do, so please do not feel you need to complete it all. You could start by picking the topics you are most interested in and seeing how you get on. You can google the names of the ‘read’ ideas and follow some of the links I have provided. As you read, watch, listen or do an activity, you may want to record your thoughts and ideas which I will be excited to hear about! Please note that due to the nature of the subject, there may be some topics that you find upsetting – please speak to someone you trust if you are affected by anything you read, watch or listen to. If you have any questions or want to share your ideas with me, please email me on [email protected]. I’m really excited ​ ​ to meet you all! In the meantime, stay safe.

This confirms that there is pressing need for YoungMinds to increase its reach and impact. As the only charity solely focused on championing the mental health of children and young people, it is uniquely placed to ensure that everyone knows what role they can play in improving the wellbeing of UK’s young people. A new Strategic Plan was approved by the Board in February 2016 and the resourcing requirements of this plan will be reviewed regularly. The Board membership has been refreshed and I am delighted that the Young People’s Panel is growing and will have a direct influence on Board considerations as well as many other charitable activities. Every year at YoungMinds is busy and 2015-16 was no exception. Thousands of parents received high quality support and information; hundreds of young people took part in activities which raised awareness of the challenges they are facing and opened people’s eyes to what needs to be done to improve the services that are on offer; large numbers of professionals and agencies benefitted from the training and consultancy that YoungMinds provides.

  • Assessment Support Pack: Pupil Booklet
    Higher English Assessment Support Pack: Pupil Booklet Nicola Daniel City of Edinburgh Council Higher English This advice and guidance has been produced to support the profession with the delivery of the new Higher English course. The aim of this resource is to give experience of for Unit Assessment and/or external assessment or prelims which will develop the skills sampled by the final assessment – Reading for Understanding, Analysis and Evaluation. There are examples of listening, talking and writing assessments linked to some topics. This unit has been sent for prior verification to SQA. Full details of verification will be issued when confirmed by SQA. The resources in this unit can be used as practice in the classroom or for homework. If kept securely (and if verification comes back accepted), these could be used as prelim papers and/or Unit Assessments. Learners are developing the skills they have acquired in understanding, analysis and evaluation, applying them as they respond critically to a series of non-fiction newspaper articles, blogs or similar. In the external assessment, Reading for U, A, E, learners will complete questions which analyse one text/extract presented in detail and will compare this text to a second text/extract. There will be a mixture of restricted response questions requiring short answers and extended responses. Thirty marks are allocated to this task. Further information about the assessment is available via the link below: http://www.sqa.org.uk/files_ccc/Cfe_CourseAssessSpec_Higher_Languages_english.pdf Working with these materials will develop learners’ skills in: Understanding of the context of the text (what the writer says) Analysis of the techniques used (how the writer says it) Evaluation of the effectiveness/impact of the text (how well, in the learner’s opinion, the writer has explored the topic/achieved his/her purpose) Learners will have regular opportunities to assess their progress.
