The worksheets are primarily designed to help students build their portfolio evidence. They are, therefore, based on the Assessment Evidence Grid within the specifications for Unit 1 and 2. However, students will need to link some underpinning knowledge to the evidence that they are presenting for their portfolio work. To help them achieve this, page references have been given at the top of each worksheet. This will help students find the appropriate section within the student book. This knowledge can then be applied to the service(s) they have chosen for Unit 1: Health, social care and early years provision or to the person they have chosen for Unit 2: Promoting health and well-being.
It must be stressed that the Assessment Evidence Grids require students to apply their knowledge.
For example, in Unit 1 students are required to select one (AQA and Edexcel/CCEA) or two (OCR) services. Once they have chosen, all evidence must be applied to the service(s) chosen. The worksheets will enable students to do this. The worksheets link to the assignments that are given within the teachers’ file and will help the students to build up evidence for their final grade for a unit.
In Unit 2 students are required to produce a health plan for one person. A case study has been included as a worksheet to help those students who are unable to collect primary evidence. Other worksheets will help the student to focus on a specific criterion within the Assessment Evidence Grid and can be used to support primary evidence, or can be used instead of primary evidence.
For Unit 3: Understanding personal development, candidates do not have to produce portfolio evidence. The worksheets will help students to carry out activities that will help them to learn the underpinning knowledge they will need for the test.
