Key Notes on Differentiation
ContentProvide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Business risk identification and management. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Business risk identification and management.
ProcessUse 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.
ProductUse 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 CriteriaThe 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.
HomeworkCreate two original business-contract scenarios: one showing all essential elements and one showing a problem that could affect the contract.
