Changes to this Teacher Guide
This Teacher Guide has been amended. The latest Teacher Guide is version 2.0, published

• We have made changes in order to make the Teacher Guide digitally accessible. For
example, we have increased the font size and spacing and added alternative text to
images and tables.
• We have included subject-specific examples in each section.
• We have made the planning section more relevant to Cambridge Lower Secondary
Global Perspectives to reflect the different ways it can be delivered in your school
(Section 2).
• We have added more guidance on adapting Challenges and examples from selected
Challenges that include example lesson plans (Section 2).
• We have added more guidance on learning resources and connecting with other
Cambridge schools (Section 2).
• We have added guidance on the role of the Global Perspectives teacher (Section 3).
• We have included a new section on language and dialogue with more guidance on
providing language support in the classroom (Section 4).
• We have added guidance on sensitivity around topics and issues (Section 4).
• We have added more guidance and subject-specific examples about parental
involvement and links to the wider community (Section 5).
• We have removed information about Cambridge Lower Secondary Checkpoint Global
Perspectives as this is now included in a new document Checkpoint Instructions (Section
6).
• We have added guidance on the new Assessment guidance (Section 6).
• We have included new diagrams to represent skills and demonstrate the components of
a Challenge.
• We have removed case studies. Any existing or new case studies will be available on the
Cambridge Lower Secondary support site.
