Apply Application of management functions independently to a new case, data set, text, material or performance situation. | ||

| Content | Provide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Application of management functions. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Application of management functions. | ||
| Process | Use mixed-ability pairs for the first application, then require an individual transfer task. Allow oral/visual demonstration where appropriate while retaining the same subject accuracy criteria. | ||
| Product | Use a checklist/rubric tied to the concrete output for this week rather than participation alone. For advanced work, require justification with evidence, calculations, source reference or quality criteria. | ||
| Success Criteria | The learner uses correct subject terminology and evidence. The learner completes the week’s concrete product/calculation/performance with acceptable accuracy. The learner explains why the procedure/choice fits the stated context rather than giving a memorised general answer. | ||

| Activity 220 minutes | Assign a realistic organisation case and require groups to apply Application of management functions to produce a decision, flow, structure or management action. | Construct a flowchart/organogram/checklist that shows the correct sequence or responsibilities involved in Application of management functions. | Assess the group product for sequence, feasibility and justification. |
| Activity 310 minutes | Give an individual mini-case requiring one concrete output that demonstrates Application of management functions. | Redesign the case so that Application of management functions is applied correctly, stating the expected business outcome. | Check whether the individual output would work in the stated organisation. |
