AQA GCSE (9-1) Biology Two Year Scheme of Work This 2-Year Scheme of Work offers a flexible approach for KS4. The suggested timings are based on five lessons per fortnight (assuming a two-week timetable of three lessons one week and two lessons in the other) but can be tailored to suit the needs of a particular class or group of students. Lessons are assumed to be sessions of 4060 minutes. The teaching scheme is scheduled to finish in the second term of Year 11 to allow time for revision and GCSE examinations in the summer term. Please note that some of these lessons are shorter than others and therefore sometimes there are more than five lessons in a fortnight. The maths skills spreads are numbered as the last spread in a chapter but can be used at any appropriate point according to the needs of your students.
