Curriculum trust boundary

Starter-map content needs expert review before production trust

Lessons can be explored for MVP coverage and learner-model behaviour, but concepts marked pending, needs revision or blocked must not be treated as fully trusted instruction.

1. Energy

Build secure A-Level understanding of energy in Physics.

A common misconception is treating energy in Physics as a memorised label instead of a usable idea with evidence.

Validation: Generated starter-map content for MVP breadth. It is structurally complete but still requires subject-expert review before production claims.

Starter concept map Pending expert review Prerequisite: Core vocabulary for energy Extension: Extend toward forces and motion once energy is transferable.

Stage progression

Repair foundation: GCSE / Key Stage 4 Physics - Repair foundations in GCSE / Key Stage 4 Physics if energy is blocked by earlier knowledge.

Later outcome: Advanced independent use - Stretch energy into independent, synoptic or real-world Physics work.

Representative problem: Use energy in an extended Physics response that includes justification and evaluation.

Mastery signal: Explains energy in their own words
