Edexcel Exam Info
I often refer people to the fantastic Edexcel assessment support page, but I sometimes found it inconvenient having to move between the collapsing sections, so I've copied and pasted that text into a PDF. None of it is my own writing, I just wanted to share in case it's in a more useful format for you.
Pizza Inequality
A hands-on station for open days, or a quick hook for the start of a lesson on inequality. Visitors cut a paper plate “pizza” into five slices to show what share of the nation’s wealth they think each fifth of the population holds, from the poorest 20% to the richest, and you then reveal the real UK figures. The richest fifth hold around 74% of wealth, while the poorest fifth are in debt overall, which is the grey slice and the part worth stopping to explain.
Shifting cost curves
This worksheet has two parts: Part 1 is scaffholded to ask students whether the cost is fixed or variable and then which curve(s) shift. Part 2 looks at the trickier examples that are similar on the surface, but actually different.
