Great to meet Abby today! We completed a diagnostic test to identify gaps in her understanding. It is clear she has a strong grasp of the personal finance aspects of the unit but has some significant gaps in understanding around financial documents and their application. If you are happy to proceed with sessions, I will set out a schedule of sessions based on the outcome of her diagnostic test, focusing on developing a deeper understanding of financial concepts, applying these to different contexts and exam skills development to get her closer to her predicted grade of Distinction.

Lovely first session today with Alfie! Hopefully he found this useful. From the diagnostic test it is clear Alfie has a good overall knowledge of key business concepts but is struggling to apply this to exam style questions. Today we looked at 6 -mark exam structure which will help Alfie access higher analysis marks in exam questions. It would be good to see Alfie's mock exam paper in his next online session to identify more specific areas for development around exam skills. Hopefully get to work with you again Alfie! Have a lovely end of term break when it arrives! Sarah
