Year 11 Project Futures

The Project Futures programme is designed to help Year 11 students plan for their future and give them a focus during the time they have away from school.

What it is:

A set of progression sheets that help students study some content ready for post-16 or post-18.
A balance between academic material and a focus on helping students adjust and prepare for September
A simple way of giving students focus and tracking what they have done.

How it works:

Students select a progression sheet that interests them and choose tasks to complete. For each progression sheet, they should aim to score 100 points. Each activity comes with a number of points.
There are subject specific sheets and wider skills sheets focusing on social and emotional progression. Students should aim to complete a progression sheet for an academic area that interests them, but also aim to complete two or three academic, social or emotional progression grids.
Students complete the ‘Progression Log’, which logs what they have learned and their next steps.
Students create a portfolio (online or in a folder) which shows some of their thinking and work.

Who it’s for:

Year 11 who are about to go into post-16 courses – there are progression sheets by groups of subjects, as well as academic, social and emotional grids.
