AQA English Language and Literature B PLCs for questions 1 and 2

PLCs (also known as personal learning checklists) have proven to be an essential tool in improving my KS5 students' understanding of their own targets and areas of strength. The PLCs below strive to give each student an idea of which band they're on whilst clearly signposting their next D.I.R.T targets.

Question 1 Students simply highlight what they forgot to do by looking at the band above the one they achieved.

Question 2 PLC Students tick each skill according to the band they feel it is at. This enables students to oversee their overall band and to identify which skills they need to develop in order to achieve their highest band potential.

Literacy peer-assessment checklist

Here's an example of a literacy peer-assessment sheet I developed in order to increase my students' consideration of their literacy skills. I will improve this sheet by linking it to our department's literacy marking codes and by providing a literacy 'cheat sheet' (a literacy map at the back of the sheet) in order to assist the peer assessor with the assessment of their classmate's literacy skills.
