The document discusses the performance of students in a photography class. It finds that many students achieved A grades during their A2 year but received lower grades at AS, pulling their overall marks down. It also notes some underperformance by female students and white British students. The new teacher plans to restructure the AS course to allow more development time and implement a wider range of creative approaches to better suit different students. Strategies include allowing current AS students to re-enter coursework to improve grades and using clearer policies for students not meeting commitments.
