This resource contains six separate PP presentations, with one dedicated to each of the six G C S E Drama Component 1 portfolio questions. This includes examples from work that is not on the exam boards website allowing students to see more examples of grade 9 work. It also includes examiner feedback.

Each set of slides includes:

A breakdown of what the question is asking
Step-by-step guidance on how to structure an answer
Multiple Grade 9 exemplar responses (teacher-assessed and confirmed to be Grade 9 standard)
Examiner advice and common pitfalls
A O 1 and A O 4 guidance
Sentence starters and writing scaffolds
Success criteria and checklists
Suggested word counts
Opportunities for self and peer assessment

Each presentation is designed to be taught as a standalone lesson or used independently by students, making it ideal for:

Teaching each portfolio question individually
Homework or flipped learning
Intervention sessions
Revision lessons
Coursework catch-up
Independent study

Great for SEND students as it provides sentence structures. Great for high ability students as the examiner feedback allows the challenge. Mark schemes allow students to mark their own work.

This flexible format allows teachers to dip into the exact portfolio question they are teaching without having to navigate one large presentation.
