What support is available on for making decisions on which tier (foundation or higher) we should enter students?

We have produced a fact sheet that gives teachers information to think about when deciding which tier is most suitable for their students. The fact sheet shows combined science, however the theory is the same for separate sciences.

We have also produced a tiering guide that can be shared with parents and students.

Professional Development “How to make effective tiering decisions for GCSE sciences” is also available each year to provide more in depth support. This can be viewed from the Training tab (Upcoming events) in Teach Cambridge or on our website. The materials from previous events can also be found on Teach Cambridge under Past training events.
