CCEA Planning Framework for GCSE Business and Communications Systems

IntroductionThe purpose of this Planning Framework is to support the teaching and learning of GCSE Business and Communication Systems. The Planning Framework is based on specification content but should not be used as a replacement for the specification. It provides suggestions for a range of teaching and learning activities which provide opportunities for students to develop their: Knowledge and understanding Subject specific skills The Cross-Curricular Skills Thinking Skills and Personal Capabilities

The Planning Framework is not mandatory, prescriptive or exhaustive. Teachers are encouraged to adapt and develop it to best meet the needs of their students.

CCEA Planning Framework for GCSE Business and Communications Systems

Subject Skills Assessed through Business and Communication Systems:The following skills are assessed in GCSE Business and Communications Systems: knowledge and understanding application of knowledge and understanding develop skills and understanding in the use of software applications decision making, using data and problem solving; and analysis and evaluation.

Supporting the Development of Statutory Key Stage 4 Cross-Curricular Skills and Thinking Skills and Personal CapabilitiesThis specification builds on the learning experiences from Key Stage 3 as required for the statutory Northern Ireland Curriculum. It also offers opportunities for students to contribute to the aim and objectives of the Curriculum at Key Stage 4, and to continue to develop the Cross-Curricular Skills and the Thinking Skills and Personal Capabilities. The extent of the development of these skills and capabilities will be dependent on the teaching and learning methodology used.

Cross-Curricular Skills at Key Stage 4

CommunicationStudents should be able to: make oral and written summaries, reports and presentations, which

take account of audience and purpose, for example presentation of the marketing mix for given a product or service;

participate in discussions, debates and interviews, for example carrying out interviews to collect primary research; and

interpret, analyse and present information in oral, written and digital formats, for example analysis of primary and secondary research.

Using MathematicsStudents should be able to: use mental computation to calculate, estimate and make predictions in

a range of simulated and real-life contexts, for example calculating costs, revenue and profit;

select and apply mathematical concepts and problem solving strategies in a range of simulated and real-life contexts, for example identify financial issues and suggest improvements to cash flow for a business;

interpret and analyse a wide range of mathematical data, for example analysis of market research results;

CCEA Planning Framework for GCSE Business and Communications Systems

assess probability and risk in a range of simulated and real-life contexts, for example understand risks associated with unlimited liability; and

present mathematical data in a variety of formats which take account of audience and purpose, for example graphical representation of costs, revenue, profit.

Using ICTStudents should be able to make effective use of digital technology in a wide range of contexts to access, manage, select and present information, including mathematical information, for example secondary research online; collation and graphical presentation of data; use of spreadsheets for financial data.

Thinking Skills and Personal Capabilities at Key Stage 4Self-ManagementStudents should be able to: plan work, for example planning research within a given time; set personal learning goals and targets to meet deadlines, for example

planning research within a given time; monitor, review and evaluate their progress and improve their

learning, for example reflect on their contribution to group work; and effectively manage their time, for example plan, research and develop

a web page.

Working with OthersStudents should be able to: learn with and from others through co-operation, for example extract

information to be used for business documents; participate in effective teams and accept responsibility for achieving

collective goals, for example working in small groups to decide on relevant information; and

listen actively to others and influence group thinking and decision-making, taking account of others’ opinions, for example when communicating a balanced point of view with logical conclusions.

Problem SolvingStudents should be able to: identify and analyse relationships and patterns, for example

understand the relationship between price and demand; propose justified explanations, for example use research to justify a

decision; reason, form opinions and justify their views, for example when

presenting a digital solution for a given problem within a business context;

analyse critically and assess evidence to understand how information or evidence can be used to serve different purposes or agendas, for example be aware of bias in advertising and promotions;

analyse and evaluate multiple perspectives, for example understand the importance of legislation to protect employers and employees;

explore unfamiliar views without prejudice, for example consider the perspectives of a range of stakeholders in a business decision;

weigh up options and justify decisions, for example use financial information to make and justify a decision; and

apply and evaluate a range of approaches to solve problems in familiar and novel contexts, for example using the full breadth of knowledge to plan reasoned solutions to business issues.

Although not statutory at Key Stage 4 this specification also allows opportunities for further development of the Thinking Skills and Personal Capabilities of Managing Information and Creativity.

CCEA Planning Framework for GCSE Business and Communications Systems

Provides relevant, interesting, motivating and enjoyable teaching and learning activities which will enhance the student’s learning experience.

Makes reference to supporting resources.

Unit 1Software applications play a vital role in business. They add value by increasing efficiency. Software applications can reduce the amount of time tasks take and they can improve record keeping. They can also enhance the ways in which businesses communicate with their stakeholders.

In this unit, students learn about relevant functions in software applications and develop their skills in using them in business contexts. When using software applications, students should be aware of standard ways of working and best practice approaches.

Pre-release data files will be available on our website before the examination. These will be in formats compatible with Microsoft Office (version 10 and above, and Microsoft Office 365).

If centres are not using this software, they should ensure that they convert the files into the appropriate format. Centres should seek guidance from CCEA on this process.
