Wider Reading: Health and social care

Media use: Pupils studying health and social care are given the opportunity for internet-based research to access a variety of health and social care websites.

Pupils are encouraged to take an interest in appropriate TV programmes such as ’24 Hours in A&E.’

Resources such as ‘Old People’s Home for 4 Year Olds’ and ‘The Secret Life of 4- and 5-Year Olds’ are appropriately used in class.

The following books are recommended as appropriate:

‘The Fault in our Stars’: Story of two cancer-afflicted teenagers who embark on the adventure of their lives. by J.Green
