Year 11 GCSE PE - REVISION
Well everyone we are nearly at the final straight to the finish line. It is now purely revision from now on. As I explained in class, you went away with your past paper from 2007 (plus mark scheme) and a new one from 2010 to have a go at. The mark scheme and electronic copies of this are attached on this page, with 2009 also there if you finish these.
It is incredibly important to practice exam questions as well as complete your own revision. I highly recommend looking over at the content from year 10.
As usual, any questions over easter please email me at david.barham@sackvilleschool.com.
