Key Notes on Differentiation
Content	Provide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Communication channels, barriers and remedies. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Communication channels, barriers and remedies.
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.
Homework	Observe a familiar school, shop or organisation and write a short example showing how Communication channels, barriers and remedies is or could be used.

Lesson Activities
Stage	Teacher Activity	Learner Activity	Assessment / DoK
Starter10 minutes	Present a short workplace case involving Communication channels, barriers and remedies; ask learners to identify the manager’s immediate decision and the evidence needed.	Inspect the prompt/materials, record an initial response about Communication channels, barriers and remedies, and justify it briefly.	Not provided.
Activity 115 minutes	Model the key components of Communication channels, barriers and remedies using the provided business documents, chart or case rather than definitions alone.	Map a message through sender, encoding, channel, receiver and feedback using a workplace memo/phone-call scenario.	Check correct use of management terminology and evidence from the case.
Activity 220 minutes	Assign a realistic organisation case and require groups to apply Communication channels, barriers and remedies to produce a decision, flow, structure or management action.	Use an organogram and message cards to trace downward, upward, horizontal and informal communication; identify barriers at each point.	Assess the group product for sequence, feasibility and justification.
Activity 310 minutes	Give an individual mini-case requiring one concrete output that demonstrates Communication channels, barriers and remedies.	Rewrite a poorly communicated workplace instruction so that channel, message and feedback are clear.	Check whether the individual output would work in the stated organisation.
