GCSE roadshow |
The 2006 training event ran throughout the autumn term in
a range of venues across the country. As usual it focused on
innovative ways of approaching English teaching and provided
a variety of classroom resources to support teachers in their
work.
With nearly 300 teachers attending, the course evaluations
showed 75% of delegates rating the course Very Good, 24.6%
rating it Good and 0.4% rating it Satisfactory.

Watch highlights of a visit made to the centre by 30 students
from Chulmleigh Community College to edit their GCSE Media
Studies practical work.
Students had previously filmed their material on Mini DV and
sent their tapes in to be digitised into the Centre's Vaio
laptops. Students were given a group tutorial on how to use
the editing software - Pinnacle Studio 8. They then proceeded
to edit their material adding titles, music and effects under
the watchful eye of their tutors, Colette McEnery-Lane and
Roger Crompton. The resulting work was then transferred
to VHS tapes for submission to the exam board.
