Today’s topic is Year 11 mock examinations. Matt and Femi discuss:- Holding 2 or 3 sets of mocks vs just 1.- That mocks should not be the main means by which we discover what students can and cannot do.- Conditions for students to learn and improve on knowledge gaps exposed by tests, the implications for ‘going through’ the test in lessons, and why that is rarely effective- Best practice for giving feedback from mocks, and some examples of poor practice.- Issues with question level analysis- How Mocks can crystallise classroom culture, and setting up and capitalising on their success- What happens when mock results are not so good or students are not prepared for them- Giving scores back- Turning around the marking of papers- Postcards, emails or letters home praising effort- Running mocks well- Lending equipmentAs always you can get in touch with Matt or Femi through @BeyondGoodPod on X.
