At Field Studies Council we know that the new WJEC geography fieldwork assessment at GCSE requires schools to change how they deliver fieldwork.
We have worked closely with WJEC subject advisers to plan courses to take the stress out of these changes. We are offering Teacher Training and Fieldwork courses to support Welsh Schools to complete the NEA for each year of submission.

Teacher Training
Following on from the work we have undertaken with WJEC, we are now offering a teacher training course that will guide you through the changes. This course is designed to ensure teachers acquire the knowledge and skills needed to support their students in completing the NEA for each year of submission. It is also a great opportunity to meet and share experiences with other teachers.
