1. Creative curriculum design for KS3 Sara Vaughan http://sdvaughan.edbublogs.org

2. New curriculum, new flexibilities... • Year 7 Pupils arrive with (considerable and varied) prior learning • KS3 curriculum offers a less prescriptive content • KS4 offers a wider range of qualifications • There is a broader range of ‘tools’ than ever before to use in the classroom

3. New challenges... • Pupils have different expectations from their Language learning in Yr 7 • Progression and academic rigour are paramount • Ensuring the best fit for students is key in raising standards and ensuring good KS4 uptake • We need to be selective with materials and our curriculum content to ensure that they secure and enhance learning

Ich habe mich darüber sehr gefreut. Ich bin fünfzehn Jahre alt und wohne in Freiburg. Das ist eine schöne, alte Stadt in Südwestdeutschland. Ich habe zwei Brüder. Martin, mein älterer Bruder, ist zwei Jahre älter als ich und Peter, mein anderer Bruder, ist zehn Jahre alt. Martin ist manchmal ungeduldig und auch sehr laut. Peter ist lieb und immer gut gelaunt. Haustiere habe ich auch! Meine Katze heisst Mitzi und ist schwarz und weiss und mein Meerschweinchen heisst Rudi. Meine Eltern müssen lange arbeiten. Mein Vater ist Bankangestellter und meine Mutter ist Zahnärztin. Ich weiss noch nicht, was ich später werden möchte. Meine Schule ist eine Gesamtschule und liegt ganz in der Stadtmitte. Meine Lieblingsfächer sind Englisch und Französisch. Mathe finde ich ziemlich schwierig! Heute abend gehe ich ins Kino. Ich sehe sehr gern Gruselfilme! Was machst du gern in deiner Freizeit? Schreib bald Markus
