Predictions?

For the education side my teacher predicted: Government policies, Attainment and there is a chance of gender identities or subject choice to come up.

For the research method, the prediction for question five was postal questionnaires but nothing was predicted on any of the other questions

Hi.
think of the selection process in schools as skimming and silting. The best students are selected by schools these are the "cream of the Crop". Marketisation of schools and exams like the G11 or the 11 plus examination are examples of the selection process within the education system.

Structure your paragraphs so that they go through PETVRR, each issue will be a paragraph. Or if you prefer, PERV(e)RT if its easier to remember, although this isn't the best structure.

However gender came up so many times... I think it will be social class

For research methods,
if the question were to ask to examine the problems of different types of experiments (lab, field, natural) should you include advantages and examples?

and would you structure by stating the type, for example field experiments, then address the problems using (PET) and then counter it by using advantages and then give an example?

I'm so confused :frown:
