Weekly Learning Plan
Subject	Business Management	Week	3
Duration	60 minutes	Form	SHS 3
Strand	Managing Businesses and the Legal Framework of Businesses	Sub-Strand	Functional Areas of Management
Learning Outcome(s)	3.1.2.LO.1 - Demonstrate understanding and practical application of Production planning and control within the curriculum sub-strand Functional Areas of Management.
Learning Indicator(s)	3.1.2.LI.2 - Production planning and control
Lesson Focus	Production planning and control
Previous Knowledge	Learners recall the immediately preceding knowledge/skill needed to engage with Production planning and control; the starter diagnoses this rather than assuming mastery.
Lesson Objective(s)	Identify or explain the key subject idea/procedure in Production planning and control. Complete the concrete guided/practical task for Production planning and control accurately. Apply Production planning and control independently to a new case, data set, text, material or performance situation.
Essential Question(s)	What evidence or procedure is needed to work accurately with Production planning and control? What would a strong practical/application response to Production planning and control look like? How would changing the context, data or constraints affect a decision about Production planning and control?
Pedagogical Strategies	Diagnostic questioning Experiential/problem-based learning Collaborative analysis Guided modelling Independent application Peer/self assessment
Teaching & Learning Resources	Production-system picture cards Process-flow template Demand/capacity table Calculator
Key Notes on Differentiation
Content	Provide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Production planning and control. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Production planning and control.
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 Production planning and control is or could be used.

Lesson Activities
Stage	Teacher Activity	Learner Activity	Assessment / DoK
Starter10 minutes	Present a short workplace case involving Production planning and control; ask learners to identify the manager’s immediate decision and the evidence needed.	Inspect the prompt/materials, record an initial response about Production planning and control, and justify it briefly.	Not provided.
Activity 115 minutes	Model the key components of Production planning and control using the provided business documents, chart or case rather than definitions alone.	Classify pictured enterprises as job, batch, mass/flow or another appropriate production form and justify each classification.	Check correct use of management terminology and evidence from the case.
Activity 220 minutes	Assign a realistic organisation case and require groups to apply Production planning and control to produce a decision, flow, structure or management action.	Build a simple production-planning flow for a local product, identifying inputs, sequence, quality checks and output target.	Assess the group product for sequence, feasibility and justification.
Activity 310 minutes	Give an individual mini-case requiring one concrete output that demonstrates Production planning and control.	Use a capacity/demand table to recommend a production plan and explain the trade-off.	Check whether the individual output would work in the stated organisation.

Lesson Closure

Ask learners to name one specific mistake an organisation could make in Production planning and control and the practical consequence of that mistake. Complete a one-minute exit response using a concrete example from the lesson on Production planning and control.
