#2024 Challenge

So, it’s been a long time since I posted to this website – for many reasons, but one of which is that I have been just swamped with work.

However, as people who have followed me for a few years might know, this is the time of year when the adrenaline usually kicks in and I set myself a ridiculous challenge that I share with students – for past examples see the #40daychallenge and the #2022challenge pages where I tried to write model answers for a period of time.

This year, with slightly less time to complete these challenges, I have decided to instead set a series of revision workouts. An hour per day of directed revision activities that I will post on my instagram account (and possibly X – although I really don’t like that platform any more). For teachers, I am making these activities free to download and use in classrooms.

How it works is that I set the tasks in the morning, and through the day I post what would be my responses to the tasks set. It’s not continuous prose as I have done in the past, but rather a series of targeted activities looking at as many areas of the specification as possible. The schedule is posted above, but I will be making all resources available to teachers and students as they are produced. There are 9 or 10 workouts already available on the 2024 challenge page of this website.

Best of luck to all students sitting this year’s A levels. Last year there were over 45,000 students sitting sociology, which made it the sixth biggest A level. Here’s hoping that a brighter and better future comes from these inquisitive minds.
