In response to the impact of Covid-19 we have made changes to a number of our qualifications.

The changes are designed to reduce the pressure on teachers and students in the 2021/22 academic year, and to safeguard against ongoing public health concerns.

Overview of the changes for Entry Level Geography

The fieldwork notebook task can already be performed without leaving the school environment as can the personal project task. This is confirmation (rather than a change) that fieldwork can be carried out:

• ‘in the field’ e.g., school grounds, locally (to the centre or student’s home) or further afield
• virtually (classroom-based).

Support

OCR’s team of expert subject advisors have created videos, webinars, and other resources to guide you through these changes and help you prepare your students for their exams in summer 2022.
