The Key Stage 4 students have been working towards their mock exam in November which will be on Paper 2 . This part of the exam compares two texts on the same theme. We have been looking at the Death Penalty, and comparing arguments for and against. This provoked a lot of discussion which was perfect preparation for the students’ speeches which were recorded. Students decided whether they were for or against the death penalty and spoke passionately to an imaginary audience.
