This scheme focuses on how we think we look or want to be seen rather than what we actually look like. The more gifted pupils produce quite realistic work but even the weaker pupils are able to create portraits that bear some resemblance to them. Because the focus is on how we think we look rather than realism the weaker pupils are less inclined to be disolutioned.

I have used a template for a scheme of work from TES resources. I use this scheme with year 7's and it introduces them to different types of printmaking techniques. I have also adapted a 'How to Draw' powerpoint that I found on TES to introduce the drawing aspect of the project.
