For teachers
Teaching Kindertransport
Everything on the student site, organised for the classroom: a scheme of work built around the coursework, lesson sequences that follow the play scene by scene, and assessment guidance for the Edexcel IGCSE coursework component.
Scheme of work
From pre-reading context to final coursework submission, mapped to the play’s four scenes and the drafting timeline.
TeachLessons by scene
Lesson sequences with page references, key questions, activities and running trackers for motifs and quotations.
AssessAssessment
The AO1/AO2 coursework grid in practical terms, the drafting rules, and the examiner pitfalls to teach against.
How the two sites fit together
The student site follows the structure of the play and funnels towards the coursework guide: each scene page ends with a coursework-building task, and the quotation bank is organised by the three question focuses. Set the scene guides as pre-reading, catch-up or revision; use the lesson sequences here for classroom teaching. Students who miss lessons can recover the ground independently.
Why there is no feedback tool on this site
The Klara and the Sun site carries an AI marking desk; this site deliberately does not. Coursework rules restrict the assistance students may receive on the assessed piece, students sign a declaration that AI has not written or edited their work, and an automated feedback tool would sit on the wrong side of that line. The site teaches the play and the process; the essay remains entirely the student’s. The integrity rules are set out for students in plain language.
A note on copyright and privacy
The site quotes the play only in short extracts for criticism and review; all summaries and commentary are original, and nothing from the specification, training materials or published guides is reproduced. No student work appears on this site. Students need their own copies of the play, the page references follow the class edition.
