• explore the strengths that lower-attaining students have and how these can be built upon
• develop strategies for improving lower-attaining students’ historical skills and knowledge.
Please note, as this session may be repeated, and to ensure recorded content is not accessed by undisclosed third parties, it is Pearson’s policy not to share recordings for paid training events.
This event counts as 2 hours of CPD. You will receive an e-certificate by email, post attendance.
