I'm just about to pilot the AGCSE double award at my college but i've got a problem in that although I've taught GNVQ at foundation level, none of my work has prepared me to really get this course up and running successfully. I'm worried that I'll screw up so I'm looking for any advice people might have as to the do's and don'ts of GCSE leisure and tourism.

The simple truth is that I know next to nothing about them! I'm now in charge of Leisure and Tourism at my college and I'm desperate for it to be a success but I'm finding it hard to get my ideas together and know what to do hence my looking for a suitable place to ask important questions. There must be someone out there who knows something? Must admit that I bet myself that when I posted the first comment the reply would be to possibly lead a possibly discussion area. I won!

I've just been asked to head up Leisure and tourism at my college but have found absolutely nothing anywhere worth looking at for this subject. Might I suggest another additional area in which the vocational areas might be able to swap ideas as this is going to be an area which will defintiely be taking centre stage in a number of colleges and schools seeking to raise achievement in the next few years.
