tutor2 Psychology – Weekly Update

It’s been another busy week at tutor2u and this week we have extended our support and continued developing first class resources to get you ready for September.

Supporting OCR & IB

At tutor2u we are committed to providing top quality advice, guidance and support for Psychology teachers and students and recently we extended our support to OCR and IB. We now have a dedicated team working on the creation of OCR and IB resources and will be extending our provision of FREE webinars to include CPD for OCR and IB teachers.

Keep an eye on our events page and sign up to one or more of our FREE webinars.

Psychology Free Teacher CPD Webinars

Also, why not join our OCR A Level Psychology Teacher group on Facebook. The group is a "closed" community so we can make sure that only OCR Psychology teachers are involved. We encourage open discussion, sharing of ideas, approaches and resources for the OCR spec!

Updated Marking Grid

If you’ve used our popular peer marking grid, you will know that it can save you hours and hours of marking time, while also making your student understand the requirements of the mark scheme. We have recently updated our marking grid, to make peer-assessment even more straight forward. Download our marking grid for FREE, here. Marking grids for other exam boards will be posted this week.
