Specifications are updated over time, which means there may be contradictions between the resource and the specification, therefore please use the information on the latest specification at all times. If you do notice a discrepancy please contact us on the following email address: resources. feedback@ocr. org. uk

Key considerations Explore different methods of delivering the new specification , considering different approaches depending on staffing and expertise within your centre and the resources you have available. Consideration how theoretical content of the specification can be covered the content in different ways, through: • Designing without making. • Making without designing. • Designing and making. • Developing practical and thinking skills. • Developing knowledge and understanding through practical work. Consideration how iterative designing can be approached, develop skills to build confidence before starting NEA. Methods of research, approaches to designing and evaluating. Enabling learners to plan and manage their NEA. Focus on 'exam ready' by the end of year one. Up-skills all learners regardless of prior knowledge or attainment. Aim for quality communication and professional standard of work.
