A Level Travel & Tourism
GCSE Leisure & Tourism
We have been heavily involved in the development of the GCSE and A level specifications being offered by the WJEC. The Travel & Tourism A level specification follows the new 4-unit format which means that candidates only have to complete one rather than two portfolios in each year of the course. We have no doubt that this makes the specification far more manageable than having to complete two portfolios and provides increased time for the effective delivery of the course which should lead to improved results. The new GCSE course will be available from September 2009 as single or double award, with the two compulsory units focusing on Leisure and Tourism in a chosen area and Tourism Destinations. These are being supported through a free ‘virtual textbook’ that we are in the process of developing. For both specifications, Jayne and I are available as ‘on-line experts’ and will be able to answer any query you have about either of the specifications.
