QCA Scheme of Work • Available in hard copy and online • 24 Units of work with in-built progression • Individual lessons within topical unit plans • Follows the Framework objectives • Commercial and free resources to support • Very ‘content-heavy’ • Lots of vocabulary • Lots of resourcing may be needed
Catherine Cheater Scheme • Available in hard copy Y3-Y6 • Powerpoints and soundfiles to support teachers • Skill-based rather than topics • Written by co-author of KS2 Framework • Practice parcels for follow-up sessions • Too much content in each lesson plan* • Additional resources expensive • May not suit some mixed-age classes
Other Schemes of work • Early Start French – KS1/Lower KS2 • Tout Le Monde – online resource • Babelzone – online resource (follows QCA units) • Petit Pont – CD Rom resource
