Plans
The Units are progressive and developmental and placed in
the order of a suggested scheme of work. If schools wish to
alter the order to fit in with their programme it would be
appropriate to use work from the year above or below the one
suggested. No wider margin should be used, for in addition
to the Multi-disciplinary module link, there should also be
consideration for the experience and ability of the class.
Each unit features Learning Objectives, Unit Framework, Expected
Learning Outcomes.
