Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support:
Year 5: May need support to identify a role – this might be an informal role, such as being a role model to other children if they don’t want a position of responsibility.
Year 6: Look at just three scenarios and focus on the themes that they might be most worried about.
Pupils working at greater depth:
Year 5: Could consider more than one role and look at the skills that are common to all the roles they may want.
Year 6: Can be challenged to give more detailed advice in the scenario activity.
