Edexcel GCSE Geography Assessment Objectives — Exam Prep

Pearson Edexcel only: Pearson Edexcel GCSE (9–1) Geography A (1GA0). A working manual for a GCSE geography department. It moves in one direction — specification, curriculum, teaching, assessment, intervention, examination — because that is the order in which the decisions get made. Part One is the only board-specific part, and it is quoted verbatim. Everything after it is subject pedagogy that is true whichever board you teach.

Cover of Pearson Edexcel GCSE Geography Assessment Objectives — Exam Preparation

Written for this specification. Part One is board-specific and quoted verbatim from Pearson Edexcel’s own document; everything after it is about how the assessment works and how students gain marks.

The assessment objectives are worded almost identically across boards and weighted differently, so this book covers Pearson Edexcel only. Check the board you teach before buying.
